Returning to the Middle Ages

Returning to the Middle Ages 150 150 oriel

Our henna stall has attended the Abbey Medieval Tournament since 2004 providing a traditional henna experience to those visiting Abbeystowe.

Our henna paste is made fresh using natural ingredients. Over the weekend we create traditional designs from Medieval Europe, Persia, Africa, India and Egypt.

Information boards are displayed for public interest with henna use and design trends during the Middle Ages, as well as a long list of countries using henna between 600 and 1600 AD.

We love coming to the Abbey Medieval Tournament in pursuit of fun, inspiration and historical excellence!

In 2014, this event is on 12th & 13th July.
