The Medieval and Family Festival Les Ducales de Guise, originally held annually but now biennial, will take place from June 19 to 21, 2026, at the Château Fort de Guise. This castle, built with timbers in the 10th century and later rebuilt with local stones, was once the residence of the Dukes of Guise. The festival will feature medieval reenactment camps, equestrian shows, knightly tournaments, participatory battles with foam weapons, crafts, artillery, and medieval cuisine. Access the castle by car or public transportation, and find more details about the program and pricing on the official Château Fort de Guise website.
