In the year 2024

In addition to the Tuesdays mentioned below, we may also be open on other days in connection with holidays and the like.

We also have various events throughout the year.

These opening days will be described here and in our activity calendar.

Course

We organise a course in needle binding, see here.

Tuesdays

Every Tuesday evening, almost, is members' night, from 18:30 to 21:00, where members can do whatever activities they are passionate about, but preferably something related to prehistoric times.
Guests are also very welcome, either for a chat about what we do or for a tour of the workshops.

Guided tour

Our films are shown here.
The tour typically begins in our lecture room with the showing of a film about the guild's work and the creation of the reconstructed Hjortspring boat - Tilia Alsie.
The film lasts approximately 20 minutes, more if there are any questions.
You can then go on to see the exhibits in the room: tools, weapons and utensils, all replicas from the Hjortspring find, as well as recreated clothing from the Early Iron Age.
The film can be shown with speech in three languages: Danish, German and English.
Tilia's space in the workshop.

The tour continues into the workshops, wood workshop and blacksmith shop. There will be a guide on hand to answer any questions.

Wood workshop

This is where our boat was made and is now stored.
Replicas of found parts from the Hjortspring find are continuously being made.
A tribal boat is being worked on.
And, of course, ongoing maintenance of Tilia and other of our creations.

Blacksmith shop

There is not much activity here. Occasionally, modern knives, damascene technique, are made by a small group of blacksmiths.

It takes about 1 hour for a guided tour, but you are welcome to stay longer. However, we finish at 9pm!
