On 6 and 7 December, the Garage Campus will be transformed into a pre-Christmas setting and become a showcase for historical craftsmanship. Children, young people and adults can learn about traditional trades and become active themselves. Various stands offer exciting insights into crafts such as pewter casting, candle making, saddling, minting (only on 6 December) and working with historical tools (only on 7 December). You can also attend workshops: Casting and reworking pewter figures, modelling and colouring candles, making small cases to hang around your neck or minting pewter coins on the mint.
