We are an organization dedicated to researching and recreating the history, martial arts, and arts & sciences of Medieval and Renaissance Europe. In the Barony of Lochmere, you can dress, fight, dance, and sing like it’s the Middle Ages, or you can just come on out and learn more about the how and why of medieval history and crafts.
