Experience the 15th Century as you join Henry V of England during his decisive campaign part way through the Siege of Harfleur. 

Let us guide you into the past on an experience day like none other as we take you on an exciting journey to experience the awesome power of the weapons that dominated the battle fields of Medieval history from the Battle of Crécy, the Battle of Agincourt and beyond. 

As you step back into the Middle Ages, our friendly guide, seemingly straight from the early 15th Century, welcomes you and leads the way to our Medieval encampment. 

Before we hand you over to any of our captains, Henry V will personally inspect his new recruits and offer words of encouragement.   

The Mighty English Longbow.

The Agincourt Experience gives you the chance to learn this iconic bow straight out of Medieval England, the English armies are expecting cross-bow shot from the walls of Harfleur so our Master Archer will be quick to get you up to speed to give cover! Learn the archery skills to shoot accurately at distance and master this iconic weapon 

If you’re expecting a simple archery session, think again!

Archery is part of the secret to our success but to breach the walls of Harfleur we will need greater power. Our Siege Captain will be waiting to run you through the basics of the artillery before you launch a projectile with the large Perrier! This is no joke, using man power it will launch a projectile over 200metres! 

Master the Blade!

Finally in preparation for the big push, you will join our Sword Master to learn the blade. No soldier will survive the clash of steel against a trained opponent, you will need to learn the skills to stay alive as you breach the defensive walls of Harfleur spurred on by the good King himself! 

Break for lunch and enjoy the delights of working class cuisine, a hot pottage and if you are very lucky, perhaps some meat and even some pepper! This is no afternoon tea! You can expect to experience how English archers ate as they awaited their time to go into battle.

What will the afternoon bring? Will the English survive France and make it home?
