Virtual Artisan Village
Consuegra (Toledo)
14, 15 and 16 August
Today, 15 August it started to rain at 9 pm and we decided to close till tomorrow.
Medieval Market
We are very happy to return, after 7 years, with our art and craft stalls to "Medieval Consuegra", especially because this well known event celebrates this year its 30th anniversary.
We'll be setting up a beautiful medieval market on the Paseo Ramón y Cajal, complete with troubadours, jugglers, and fire shows. For children, we offer workshops, story telling, a carousel, a dragon swing, and board games.
But what will make this market truly special is the quality and originality of our work, because everything we sell we have made with our own hands! You can see this for yourself at the numerous craft demonstrations.
We open Friday afternoon; Saturday and Sunday we're open morning and late afternoon.
The photographs on this page are from the market we organised in 2019 at the Plaza de España square. And here below you´ll find this year's programme.
