The II International Historical Festival "Ladoga"

28 - 29 june, 2014, Leningrad region

"Ladoga 2014" is the historical festival that presents the age of Vikings to followers of history and numerous spectators. The festival will be held in the heart of the museum-reserve "Old Ladoga", at the place where in ancient time "Adelgyuborg" – the settlement of pioneers opening the way "from Vikings to Greeks" – used to be.

The festival programme in the settlement of Staraya (Old) Ladoga is prepared by the best re-enactors of the Viking Age and Ancient Rus from Russia, Scandinavia, Central Europe and other countries. All of them will come to holiday to revive the times when the ancient Russian state was taking its shapes in the IX–XI centuries.

Next to Staraya Ladoga fortress the guests could see a marching camp of Scandinavian warriors while in the fortress itself – the show battles.

Outside the castle, the visitors may walk along the trade street and look inside the village of craftsmen.

Medieval ships of Vikings and Russians, combat and merchant vessels of Scandinavians – Drakkar, Knorr, boats and snacks will become the genuine pride of "Ladoga 2014" – the ships will line up along the pier.

At the river Volkhov sailors will demonstrate the maneuvers of the ships, boarding combat and landing ashore.
