Introduction to archery: Come and try your hand at archery in our beautiful medieval castle!

Compagnie Senestres Notes, Scriptorium: A copyist monk and a novice or student will introduce you to the typical work of medieval copyists, who copied texts by hand in order to preserve them for posterity. These two characters will also explain the evolution of calligraphy through the ages and even allow you to try your hand at this admirable discipline.
