Wer sich am 2. und 3. Mai 2026 von 11:00 – 17:00 Uhr in Dissen hinter die Kirche begibt, wird auf eine Zeitreise mitgenommen und 1000 Jahre in die Vergangenheit zurückversetzt.
Men, women and children in simple clothing made of linen and wool, craftsmen from times long past have set up camp here. In the shade of the pit houses in the Stary lud open-air museum, women cook over the fire, sew, spin and dye fabrics with natural dyes. Men forge, carve stones and carve spoons and small bowls from wood. You can look over the shoulders of the glass bead makers and silversmiths in the jewellery-making workshops of the time. A journey back in time to the everyday life of the Slavic tribes in the early Middle Ages shows how our ancestors might have lived. Groups and performers, archaeological groups from the early Middle Ages in Moravia, Kievan Rus, the Alans, the Norse and the Danes. The difficulty of making fire with flint and fire irons alone presents us with a difficult task today. On these days, you can also find out what there was to eat back then and how it was prepared. "Chain mail, gugel (this is not an internet search engine) and a pair of leggings" could be the explanations for the clothing of the time. But you can also experience how they were made "live", from spinning with a hand spindle to dyeing with natural plants and weaving. What did the jewellery that men and women wore look like and what materials was it made of? Many questions to which you will easily find answers on this day. Unfortunately, the times in the 10th/11th century were not peaceful and warriors were part of normal life for protection. The power of the sword, axe and lance and the fighting techniques used can be experienced in small demonstration fights.
