Medieval literature

On the occasion of the Literacy Festival, you can embark on a journey of medieval writing at Beckov Castle this weekend.

Through workshops from the workshop of ŠUP students Samuel Mikovíni, you will be able to try for yourself how books were made before the advent of letterpress printing - from the materials and tools used, through writing and illustrations to bookbinding or restoration of old documents. You will end your journey through the medieval scribe's workshop with a hand-made book. In addition, parades, archery and crafts await you.

The event is part of the European Cultural Heritage Days 2022.

A journey through the workshop of a medieval scribe:

1. Processing of parchment (demonstrations of its processing in individual stages)

2. Calligraphy – practical examples of writing on parchment and hand paper

3. Production of a book block - sewing a book block, wooden book boards

4. Restoration of book binding
