Children’s workshops

With pen, parchment, and paintbrush

Your students learn in a playful manner how important writing is. They learn how monks worked and what equipment they used. At the end of the workshop, they get to work themselves on embellishing the initials of their name, like a true medieval copyist. With a real feather pen!

Brewed with love and magic herbs in the medieval herb garden
