ALLAN & DOROTHY'S VISIT TO GUÉDELON

Third Page

26th September 2015

Guédelon, France

Deep in the forests of northern Burgundy, in a once disused quarry a team of master-builders are building a C13th castle from scratch. Quarrymen, stonemasons, woodcutters, carpenter-joiners, blacksmiths, tile makers, carters and rope makers are working together to revive heritage craft skills and shed light on the world of medieval construction.

More food and transport

These two geese frightend the life out of Dorothy!

Medieval carting methods!

Bread is an important part of any community

The builders need stone, wood, tiles and bread.
