EVENT PROGRAM
As part of our special exhibition we offer many interesting events.
Archaeology Theme Weekend: Duel
On this themed weekend we will be devoting ourselves to the history of single combat and its cultural significance. Fighting has always been more than just a necessity for humanity - it has developed into an art form. Archaeological finds from Glauberg and the region also demonstrate the central role of single combat in various eras.
What do we know about Celtic swordsmanship? How did Greek wrestlers, Roman gladiators and medieval knights fight? And what values do modern martial arts convey?
Look forward to combat shows from various groups. In addition, you can expect vivid lectures and much more about the history and archaeology of the combat culture. A varied program for everyone who is interested in martial arts and their cultural dimensions!

Family Sunday - tablet weaving
The Keltenwelt am Glauberg offers a hands-on programme for children and adults on this Sunday.

Archaeology Theme Weekend: Clothing and Textiles
Archaeology theme weekend - clothing and textiles
Clothes make the man! This proverb certainly also applied to the Celts. Fabrics and clothing from the Iron Age are therefore at the centre of the two theme days. Experience how fabrics were once made and dyed. Let yourself be introduced to the art of tablet weaving and learn about the working methods of textile archaeology at the information stand. Garments made from original finds will give you an idea of how the reconstruction of Celtic clothing is far more than just a craft challenge.
For children and adults, the Keltenwelt am Glauberg is offering an extensive hands-on programme on ancient textile techniques this weekend. For example, you can bring along an old item of clothing and dye it blue on site. You can also practise board weaving or spin a thread with hand spindles.
Participants who participated in the project 1qmlein.de Those who take part will receive free entry on the day of the event and can process their linen with us.

Astronomy night at Glauberg - On the trail of stars and planets
On Saturday, September 13th, between 7 and 11 p.m., everything at Glauberg will be about the sun, moon, stars and planets. The Celtic World at Glauberg and the observatory of the Frankfurt Physical Society invite you to the ninth astronomy night.
The Frankfurt astronomers will be bringing a range of different telescopes to the Glauberg to give stargazers of all ages a glimpse of the starry sky. But visitors themselves can also explore the night sky with binoculars or their own telescope.
Throughout the evening, the moon with its bizarre crater landscape and other planets will be in the spotlight. Attempts will also be made to capture one or two double stars and star clusters - light years away. But it can also be done without any technology: if you want to enjoy the fascinating firmament above the Glauberg in total, the special star tours are the right choice. Here, the current constellations are presented and tips on how to find your way around the starry sky are given.
For visitors who would like to learn more about astronomy, there will be short lectures starting at 7:30 p.m. (further information on the 3 different short lectures will follow).
An exhibition will feature real meteorites – stones from the universe – that have been found in various places around the world.
Finally, a "creative corner" provides variety for little stargazers. There they can make astronomical models and colour in astronomical motifs to their heart's content.
The permanent exhibition and the special exhibition "Paths through time. The history of the Glauberg" are open to visitors until 11 p.m. on this evening, so the world of the stars and the Celtic world can be explored together. The bistro in the museum will provide refreshments.

Archaeology Theme Weekend: Drugs versus Medicine
Theme Weekend Archaeology – Intoxicants versus Medicines
Drugs and medicinal plants play an important role in the history of mankind. According to archaeological sources, they have been used since the Stone Age to treat illnesses, to relieve pain, and also in religious rites. Alcohol, which is made from sugary plants and honey, has found a firm place in many societies, and not just as a luxury item. However, this should not obscure the fact that uncontrolled drug consumption also carries great risks.
The theme day is therefore dedicated to the controversial topic with numerous information stands and invites visitors to get to know the different sides of intoxicants but also of medicinal products derived from plants.
