Midsummer 1588 - Tudor Re-Creation including Midsummer Celebrations

During Tudor Kentwell visitors embark on a time travel experience which takes them back to Tudor times. All about is the Tudor age. Relax into it and spend a day in the 16th Century! Excellent for children but enjoyed by all.

Each Re-Creation is set in a different year of the 120 years of the Tudor period. Kentwell's Tudors react to the outside events of that year as if they were actually taking place then.

More than 200 Tudors (up to 400 at weekends) at any one time creating the dress, speech, food, drink, music, dance, crafts, activities, pleasures and way of life of the chosen year. Visitors feel they have been transported back to a whole 16th C. community in which everyone is dependent upon each other. This is how life actually was not just a series of demonstrations.
