Knowledge salon - Defense in West Zealand

Right here in the local area, there were many mysterious castles and impressive structures that were meant to protect against attacks in the Iron Age, Viking Age and the Middle Ages.

But what has been found at the sites, and what do we actually know about them?

Join us for a fascinating evening where our medieval archaeologist Martin Pavón talks about places like Dragsholm, Næsholm and places you've never heard of...

See exciting pictures and unique archaeological finds from several of the sites!

Don't miss an evening where we delve into the defenses and strategies used to resist attacks during the Iron Age and Viking Age.

It is necessary to buy a ticket in advance.

Coffee and cake are included in the ticket price.

The evening is part of a series of 9 different knowledge salons that address questions about armed force, combat, conflict, defense, resistance and escape from different sides, times and places.
