Step into the Middle Ages for a day
Join us on June 13, 2026 in Doesburg!
From 10:30 AM to 5:00 PM, the city comes alive with hundreds of participants in medieval attire. Enjoy street theatre, music, food, traditional crafts, livestock, market stalls, and countless medieval scenes.
For children
There is plenty to do for children at the market next to St. Martin’s Church. Under supervision, they can enjoy the carousel, play medieval games, be knighted by Baroen, or take part in a rat scavenger hunt through the city.
Children are encouraged to come dressed as princesses, knights, beggars, or witches. Costumes are also available at the clothing rental.
St. Martin’s Meal
A beloved tradition attracting visitors from across the country. In St. Martin’s Church, guests are served field soup, bread, and melon.
While dining, visitors can enjoy performances by various music and dance groups.
Since 1982, this meal has grown into an annual tradition. Admission is free; voluntary contributions are welcome upon leaving the church.
In 2025, no less than 650 litres of soup were served.
