Participation of the San Marino historical cultural association ‘La Corte di Olnano’ and the Compagnia dell’Istrice at the ‘Tewksebury Medieval Festival 2022’ (UK)
The San Marino Association “La Corte di Olnano and the Compagnia dell’Istrice” has been dealing with medieval historical re-enactment for 18 years. For educational and dissemination purposes, the Association has grown a lot over time and thanks to the love of its members for this story and for their own, it has said to transmit the same values to many young people, most of those who belong to the country this issue are in fact San Marino students. It has been present for years (and will also be present on July 28-31 on the occasion of the Medieval Days) in the First Guaita Tower, on the occasion of the major themed events, where it sets up, with faithfully reproduced furniture and equipment, reminiscent corners of the late period late medieval. The most ancient and representative monument of San Marino is thus enhanced, animated and revived with educational points, guided tours, dances, songs and theatrical performances by its members, supported by preparation courses, in-depth studies and historical reconstructive archeology paths, defined “Experimental archeology”. Over time, its members have the opportunity to make themselves known and appreciated not only in their homeland, but also in Italy and abroad by participating in important events in France, Greece, Malta, Germany, even in the distant Philippines, bringing the good name high everywhere. of San Marino, its history and its traditions. Just in these days a further opportunity is being created to do so, having been invited for the first time to participate in the largest historical event of the 15th century in England, the Battle of Tewksebury. This very prestigious event is unique in its kind, there are about 4000 reenactors from all over Europe involved and although in Italy there are medieval and authoritative historical groups, the members of La Corte di Olnano and the Compagnia invited by the Istrice will be the only ones coming from the Italian peninsula, this further demonstrates the fame and quality level achieved by our members. This is therefore a wonderful opportunity to represent the ancient Republic of San Marino and to get to know the historical-cultural tradition of our country. Waiting for the return of ours, with a photographic report of this wonderful new adventure, we kindly request your attention on this participation and we thank you for the space you intend to dare to it on your social media. Sincerely.
