Under expert guidance, the participants make a wooden round sign with a diameter of 80 cm step by step. After the surface of the shield has been sanded, the edges are covered with cowhide. Ash handles are attached to the back and a hand-forged hump is let into the prepared opening in the middle. And if you want, you can paint your sign later at home. During the workshop, comprehensive insights into craft techniques from the Viking Age will be imparted.
