3rd Tournament for the Ring of Duchess Danuta
We will take the inhabitants of the Podlaskie Voivodeship on an extraordinary journey back in time – to the distant 14th century, when the lands of our town were still covered by primeval forest, and today's Suwałki region was part of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania, bordering the State of the Teutonic Order to the west and, to the south-west, Masovia, then a fief dependent on the Kingdom of Poland.
These were times of political intrigue in the shadow of the approaching Great War with the Order, times of brave knights and ambitious ladies, of sword and bow, but also of the flourishing of culture, art and all kinds of crafts in the lands that were just beginning to unite into the mighty Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth – Terra Jagiellonica.
Public task co-financed from the funds of the City of Suwałki. Workshops of ancient crafts carried out as part of the project "Heritage of Crafts" co-organised by the National Institute of Rural Culture and Heritage.
