Friday evening we have our big barbecue with exhibition of our craft, the evening ends with a family Mass in the chapel. The course ends on Saturday 16 July at 10.00.

Our course modules

At Old Times you take part in a course during the whole week. We have eight different crafts to choose from this year. For the course to be completed, five adult participants are required and several courses have a maximum number of participants, so it is necessary that you specify at least two different wishes for the course. You can also attend the week without choosing any craft.
