The 28th and 29th June there will be an 18th century market at the Danish manor museum Gammel Estrup.
Come and visit the 1700s weekend here at Gammel Estrup, where the courtyard will be bursting with life and sound. The jugglers and fire-eaters will show what they can do, musicians will play lively old folk tunes and there are rumours that two headstrong noblemen will repeatedly get into argument and duel violently with each other. Dressed in clothes from the 1700s, the staff of the museum and a group of volunteer helpers will sell things at market stalls, serve food and drink in the coffee house and the secret bar, and ensure that there is music and entertainment.

It does!
I won’t be able to go since it’s so far away, and I think I’ll be on vacation in California at the time anyway.

Too bad!
By the way, I’ll go again at the Journée Grand Siècle in Vaux le Vicomte on the 15th of June. I’ll post the pictures on flickr and my live journal… ;-)
