“A furore Normannorum libera nos, Domine”
What is Hirdmenn?
Hirdmenn is founded to present historially accurate fight shows that are also artistic, realistic and entertaining.
We only use weapons and armour that function as realistically as possible. Our weapons are sharp, of the right weight, and function just like they did back in the day. Choreographies are based on years of studying historical European martial arts, contemporary martial arts and deep understanding of the context that the fights happened in. To this we add a level of modern entertainment. A performance created like this looks dangerous, fun, interesting and is educational!
As Hirdmenn our foremost value is presenting an authentic, thrilling show for you!
You can bet you will be entertained.
