Knights at Trenčín Castle

Get ready for a day full of heroism and a medieval atmosphere!

On Saturday 25 July 2026, Trenčín Castle will be filled with valiant knights and there will be a packed programme of activities for all the family to enjoy. Join us on a journey back to a time when honour was defended with the sword and courage was valued above all else.

What will you experience during this day of chivalry?

– Fencing and juggling performances: Witness breathtaking duels and be entertained by the jugglers’ mastery.

– Period crafts: See the skill of the old masters with your own eyes. Watch a candlemaker, scribe, coin maker, tailor and wool processor at work, and try your hand at juggling in a workshop.

– Period attractions for children: Your little ones can try archery, crossbow shooting, throwing at a target and shooting with a small catapult.

– Small period camp: Visit an authentic camp and learn how medieval warriors lived and trained.

– Interactive armoury: View and try out replicas of weapons and armour from various historical periods.

– Period Kitchen: Let the aromas entice you as you sample medieval specialities prepared according to original recipes.
