Mitterkirchen Celtic village - In the footsteps of the Celts
Included services:
- Guided tour of the Celtic village of Mitterkirchen with a welcome meal
- Participation in the Celtic Matura (fire striking, target throwing with willow wreaths, making copper spirals, baking flatbread, archery, spear throwing)
Welcome to the Celtic village of Mitterkirchen - a fascinating journey back in time to the world of the Celts, who shaped this region over 2,700 years ago. Just as the Celtic settlers once did, you will be welcomed with a glass of mead and then immersed in the village life of the Iron Age: dwellings, workshops and burial mounds show how people lived, worked and celebrated back then.
What historic settlements such as Colonial Williamsburg (Virginia) or Fort Edmonton Park are like in North America can be found here in the centre of Upper Austria: a Living History Museum where visitors can not only watch, but also lend a hand. At the Celtic Matura, you can prove that you too have Celtic blood in you - fire striking, archery, spear throwing, flatbread baking and craftsmanship with copper are among the exciting stations.
An unforgettable adventure for all those who not only want to see history, but also feel it!
