WORK EXHIBITIONS

In the park, at the Work Exhibitions Area, artisans showcase their medieval techniques. You can watch up close as traditional materials are transformed into jewelry, knives, tablet-woven bands, and drinking horns. The masters are happy to answer curious questions. If you take a liking to any of the items, don’t worry—most of them are also for sale.

The Work Exhibitions Area also offers a glimpse into everyday medieval life. At the time, most tools and supplies were made by hand. Rumor has it that merchants from the southern shores of the Baltic Sea are also planning a journey to Turku to present the products of their homelands.
