The Italian Renaissance is celebrated for its extraordinary achievements in painting, architecture, sculpture, literature, music, philosophy, science, and technology. Just as the Medici family once showcased their civic pride through magnificent works of art in Florence, so too does the Barony of Stierbach!
Join us for the Stierbach Baronial Birthday as we honor the grandeur of the Italian Renaissance—from 1450 to 1550—by bringing its rich artistic legacy to life. Celebrate with us in true Renaissance style, surrounded by beauty, creativity, and community spirit!
This year’s festivities will feature thrilling Heavy Fighting, elegant Rapier combat, skillful Archery, and a special Arts & Sciences competition celebrating Renaissance fashion. Artisans are invited to showcase their talents by creating or presenting historically inspired necklaces reflecting the opulence and design of the Italian Renaissance. Come for the pageantry, stay for the camaraderie!
More information is coming soon!
