Ritterfestspiele im Schlosspark

Experience a 4-day journey back in time to the Middle Ages at the 21st Knights Festival from April 30 to May 3, 2026 in Bad Bentheim Castle Park. Let yourself be carried away by the various encampments and enjoy delicious mead, wine or beer from traditional clay jugs. But there is much more for visitors to experience. You can watch many typical craftsmen at work. Whether tanning hides, sewing or weaving, there is something for everyone. In addition to pottery stalls, where visitors can try their hand at it themselves, you can of course also eat and drink like in medieval times. Whether it's garlic bread, delicious baked goods or traditional tarte flambée. Nobody has to go home hungry here. Once you have filled your belly, you can continue with a medieval shopping trip. In addition to shiny jewelry and traditional horns, you can also purchase leather goods, pottery and handicrafts.
