Embark on a one-day journey through time from prehistory through the Viking era to the late Middle Ages.
On Saturday, the Ctěnice Castle grounds will transform into an imaginary time machine, offering a program for the whole family in collaboration with the archaeologists from the Museum of Prague. At the archaeological stations, you will discover what the work of an archaeologist entails and try out activities from the field, laboratory, and experimental archaeology. Prehistoric shamans will present various musical instruments and perform a shamanic fairy tale for children about giants and how people emerged from underground. With the historical group Marobud, you will be transported to the time of the Vikings. You will learn about their combat gear, pottery production, food, jewelry, and the world of Viking gods. Your journey through time will conclude in the late Middle Ages with the Sub Utraque association, which will showcase the work of a dyer and tailor, period cuisine, as well as weapons and armor from the Hussite era. We look forward to seeing you!

PRAGUE THAT FITS IN A SUITCASE
Czech glass, designer jewellery, original artwork or a fragrance created in Prague. A souvenir needn't recall famous landmarks; it can tell the story of today's city and the people who create here. Prague's best-known motifs appear almost everywhere. Still, the city's most interesting mementoes are often found a few streets away, in design shops, small galleries and local artists' studios. Here you can discover a Prague that draws on a strong craft tradition while interpreting it in a contemporary and sometimes surprisingly playful way.
