Fete du Grand Fauconnier
Huge two day medieval festival
Meaning the festival of the falconer, this two-day event in July is a medieval extravaganza, with knights, ladies and peasants in costumes, fire-eaters, minstrels, jugglers, musicians and falconers (of course).
With entertainment throughout the day you'll never be bored. You can even join in the fun and rent yourself a traditional Medieval costume...however, they do take their history very seriously and they do request that people who want to integrate medieval costume parades parties must respect the medieval style by not wearing contemporary accessories such as jewellery, shoes, bags, sunglasses, camera...
The event culminates in a grand medieval banquet on the evening of the 14th with traditional entertainment. Booking and medieval costume are essential, tickets cost: €25
