Have you been to a Medieval fair before? what was it like? :) if you have any questions please let me know down below! it can be helpful for other people too who might be planning a trip! ✨
I love it! You can see they are working on a tight budget but the people are passionate about the whole thing! Fire show was great, but I especially enjoyed seeing the mounted knights
These are mostly private initiatives. Individual people own these outfits, tents, weapons etc. Theres no one budget for these events. I think only thing not private there was the restaurant.
@@simonsan5271 that’s insane ! I was shopping around and saw that many of the costumes are quite expensive (even basic ones) so I imagine that you have to dedicate a lot of resources to have a full knights outfit or this type of tent
@@EggPlusRadish Not sure about the armor sets... You probably order replicas from blacksmiths. I know some of the outfits from old slavian times are hand made, others are bought. There are companies that sell this sort of things. Its not even that expensive and look awesome. Guys in light woolen tunics, girls in white dresses, long braids, with coral neckleses and flower crowns. These were the times.. although I didnt have opportunity to live back then it all feels strangely close and nostalgic to me.
@@simonsan5271 I found a cloak that I really like but it was 600 pln I think it’s wool and a reasonable price for the quality but just way out of my budget. If you can afford it and it makes you happy of course I am happy for those guys and their costumes :) even if a little jealous ;)
Thank you for such kind and heartwarming words 😍 Actually we did not film this but I was shooting a bit more without as much guidance and it turns out I was not so good 😂 Definitely in a siege I would be more useful pouring hot water from the castle or something hahaha
Cool video, I didn't even know we have medieval festivals in Poland LOL ;) About the water pump, you have to always put some water from the top to start sucking in the water from the ground. Every pump needs that after some time of not using it, even modern ones.
Welcome to Poland, apart from the beautiful castle in Malbork, there are also other beautiful buildings such as the Moszna castle, Książ castle, Czocha castle and many others. Regards
I was born in Gdansk the most beautiful city in Poland (I'm biased obviously lol) my first trip to Malbork was when I was 8 (school trip) then few other times as I really love castles and it was near lol now I love in North Wales place with the most castles in the world there are here in nearly every town and village come over you'll love it ! Greetings from Wales UK 🇬🇧
That is so cool! I have always wanted to visit Wales 🏴 I’ve heard it’s so beautiful 🥹 I didn’t know there were many castles there, now I have even another reason to visit ! 🤩
You should add Visby on the Swedish island of Gotland on your list of places to visit, its one of the best preserved medieval towns in Europe Nice video btw 😁
In Poland there are some villages, where people do not speak modern polish. Mostly spoken is old polish there from 1920, modern people cannot understand it well, it's like different language sometimes. Other language you can discover is Kashubian. As I was kid I was on a trip with my class 2 times in historical villages (don't remember names of them), where in the first village was old polish, but some people understood modern polish and second village was a Kashubian village, there was only 1 guy speaking polish and all of the villagers were speaking Kashubian. For me it was spooky, because I, as kid had 0 idea about Kashubian and understood maybe 1% and another fun fact, people there lived with old style as it was used to live. No TV, no internet, nothing. Living on their own like hundreds years ago.
sounds like amish villages in the US! Tomek told me about this and we added this to the list of places we can visit! I definitely want to go, it sounds so interesting 🥺we have also some places nearby where you can still see a bit of Kashubian, it can be a short little day trip for us (even by bus for example) another great idea for filming! You are giving us so many great ideas for videos 😄 If we made any money we would have to pay you 😆
Nie trolluj! Wszystko co piszesz to kompletna bzdura! Oprócz Kaszubów, oni owszem mają swój własny język, ale przecież na co dzień mówią normalnie po polsku. Tusk jest zresztą Kaszubem. Z tego "staropolskiego, niezrozumiałego języka z okolic 1920 roku", to nawet się uśmiałem 😂

Although we are separated by hundreds of kilometers, and in the historical reconstruction several hundred years and several epochs, we always greet each other with joy when we see each other. 🙂
We definitely have had Toruń on our list for awhile! We made a video about Bydgoszcz but realised because of the beef between Bydgoszcz and Toruń it wouldn’t be a fair assessment without going to Toruń also 🤔

Oh my, it's so weird when you're filming a city where I live. I've seen this castle and the city so many times that it has already become mundane and kinda boring :P
I notice Europeans are not so obsessed with castles as I am. where I am from we don't have castles so whenever I see a castle it's like "WOAH AS CASTLE 😲"
@@EggPlusRadish hah! We see them quite often here, that's true. There are dozens of them just here in Poland. Both middle ages castles as well as XVIII century fortifications serving the defensive and logistic purposes alike.
@@Farathriel yeah! I was so surprised that I had friends rent castles for their weddings and there are even hotels that are castles. That totally blew my mind because really I thought only royalty or really rich people could do that
@@EggPlusRadish Tbh everybody can do it. Funny enough, once I had a presentation about video games in the conference hall in the lower Malbork castle. So they're also used for these kind of... well, entertainment purposes.
@@Farathriel I once had a meeting in a castle/old fort or something. This was during my first year I moved to Poland and I kept thinking how magical it was. I mean even today it still is, but you guys are so spoiled when it comes to castles 🏰😍
@@piotrszczepanek4812 True. And among the brothers of the Teutonic order there were also knights from many parts of Europe - France, the Netherlands, Bohemia or Hungary. And even Poland. The concept of nation did not exist in the Middle Ages.
Doesn't look like a proper peasant to me. At least Polish. Clothes were more plain. You look more like peasant from USA fantasy novel. Or even... Character from Das Schwarze Auge. That's a German RPG. Germans use such outfits in their medieval, fairy tale, quasi historical movies as well. Reality was more harsh. ;)
Yes yes I realise that! Ironically the proper good accurate clothes are quite expensive and this is just a cheap costume I bought online. Also I am not up to date tbh about what a peasant should look like so, many things. 😅
Be careful when visiting Poland! Of course is the safest place in Europe, but Poland is very well known of scamming tourists. In most of very known places tourists get scammed, not only tourists. These places exist for everyone, but with targeting for tourists to visit them with very high prices. My suggestion is not to overprice, because you're eating/drinking at typical tourist trap. I recommend to watch other channels, where the food is tasted and prices are shown. Another recommendation for you is to look for the milk bar. Not every country have it, but in Poland is very famous. Tasty and homemade food at low costs, you must try!
I haven't gotten scam ever luckily in Poland , or maybe I did and did not even notice 😅😆 Milk bar is a great idea! I used to go to them all the time when I was during my studies, but I started to taste the Polish foods that my friends brought back from their families and I really prefer this home cooked meals to the milk bars 😋 But I think it's a great idea for a future video! especially since it is not such an expensive endeavor, we definitely added it already to the to-list 😉Thank you for the idea!
@fermatichebellosei1595 You don't know what a scam is. When you buy something, and the price is higher than 50% as it should be, then it's a scam. From 2022 the prices were increased overall by 100%. When in some places prices are increased by 150% or even more, then of course, it's a scam and many people don't even notice it. One of the biggest scams in Poland is by buying ice cream and it happens in entire country. Most of people don't realize the reality and have 0 knowledge about economy and the prices and you might be scammed without knowing, you have been scammed.
@fermatichebellosei1595 Thanks for the comment! You are never too old for imagination and play 🤩 how boring the world would be without Medieval fairs or whatever 😉

I love it!
Thank you for watching 🥰
Looks like something that should be on Netflix.
I already sent application to them for more video ideas, they'll take anything 😉
UNESCO won't allow that.
@@peterc.1419 they never let us have any fun 😤

If you like medieval themes, every July there is a Grunwald battle reenactment taking place.
Summer has all the best things in Poland ! I’ll add it to the list
Love your outfit, you looked great for the medieval beauty contest ;) and you have some nice shooting skills.

Really cool video! I'm glad you both had a good time at the Malbork Castle! :)
Thank you! it was really such an amazing castle 🥺
Great talk, good flow. Keep doing it please :)
Thank you so much for such kind words and encouragement 🥺 I feel very grateful 🙏
Amazing fire show!!
It was very cool! I wasn't sure if I had made that part too long but thanks for the feedback. and thanks for watching it 🥺

"Polish" with upper-case letter "P". When you write "polish" you are referring to shoe, furniture or fingernail "polish".

If You are still in Poland, go to Biskupin.
