Amulet workshop

Visit the Monastery Garden and
meet monks and nuns who can help you create your very own medieval wooden
amulet.

The Church of Horsens visits the Middle Ages. In the monastery garden, you
can find peace and quiet for contemplation. You can learn about how people in
the Middle Ages experienced God in nature and in all things. You can place
your prayers in the deep well. There will also be activities for children
throughout the day. While you rest your legs, you can listen to talks on “To
hell and back – a Journey into Dante’s Universe,” and “The
Chronicle of the White Lady”. In the church, you will have the
opportunity to light candles as they did in the medieval Catholic church,
write your own prayers, and meet priests who will talk about medieval
Catholic customs, candle lighting, why prayers were written, and much
more.

In the church square, you can experience how the square was a bustling
trade center in the Middle Ages. You can buy letter of indulgence and make
your own amulet and hear discussions about the role of the church in the
Middle Ages.
