The medieval festival “Les Médiévales” takes place in Saint-Ursanne every other year during the second weekend in July. To the delight of several thousand spectators, the festival portrays during the three days of the event some of the activities typical of the Middle Ages as well as the atmosphere and mood in such a city at that time in history.
The medieval festival allows the city of St. Ursanne to relive the spirit that prevailed in the old bishopric of Basel. The entire region’s enthusiasm and the participation of several groups will permit us for the fifth time to let time stand still and to dream.
