Medieval Spectacle at Neuburg Castle
Neuburg an der Kammel is a small municipality in the Kammeltal valley in the Swabian district of Günzburg, located between Augsburg and Ulm. Once a year, the 16th-century castle becomes the stage for the Historical Festival Days – a medieval spectacle that brings history to life through all the senses.
The historic Neuburg Castle at Schloßweg 1 provides the atmospheric backdrop for the festival. Amidst ancient walls, a vibrant medieval scene unfolds with camp life, market stalls, and demonstrations. The rural location in the Kammeltal valley enhances the authentic character of the event.
The festival is organized by the association Armati Equites e.V., dedicated to the lively portrayal of the Middle Ages. With camp groups, craftspeople, and artists, a rich picture of past centuries emerges. The Historical Festival Days are thus a cultural highlight in the Günzburg district and a popular excursion destination for families and medieval enthusiasts from all over Bavarian Swabia.
