Familiensamstag – "Keltischer Wellenarmreif"
21.October 2023

Family Saturday – “Celtic Wave Bracelet”

This Saturday, the Celtic World at Glauberg is offering a hands-on program for children and adults.

Bangles were popular and characteristic pieces of jewellery in Celtic women's and men's costumes. Bracelets and necklaces were made from valuable gold and the then well-known bronze, but also from the new, modern material that gave the period its name: iron.

Based on an original find from the Odenwald, which can be seen in the Hesse-wide special exhibition "CELTS LAND HESSEN", young and old visitors can make a wave bracelet out of copper or iron. It's all about bending and hammering until the waves bend!
