Actors in costumes present the life of the Middle Ages Saturday through Monday in Schönenberg at Ohmbach Lake.
The community of Schönenberg near Ohmbachsee, or Ohmbach Lake, will be the stage for a medieval market Saturday through Monday.
The medieval group, Freie Gilde, will present the life of the Middle Ages with actors in costumes, and they will set up a medieval camp with vendors and craftsmen who will present their skills such as pearl making, smithing, horn carving and basket making, to demonstrate how everyday life was during the medieval times.
Knights will perform show fights; musicians will play on former instruments; and dancing groups will present tribal dances.
Visitors can test their archery skills, and children can have fun with the jugglers.
A special highlight will be the reproduction of a Viking ship, which will be launched on Ohmbachsee.
Taverns will invite visitors to taste crispy meat, spicy bratwurst and drink specialties. At night, near the campfires, actors will serve mead and Scottish whisky.
The medieval market will open at 11 a.m. each day.
Fire shows are scheduled for 10 p.m. Saturday and Sunday and will close out the event at 6 p.m. on Sunday.
