RENESANČNA SOTESKA - ko dvorec Soteska ponovno oživi …

 Spoštovani!

 Izjemna zgodovina starega gradu in renesančnega dvorca Soteska, skrivnostne zgodbe nekdanjih graščakov ter legende mogočnih Auerspergov tudi letos vabijo v prav posebno zgodovinsko doživetje.

 V slikovitem ambientu grajskega dvorišča dvorca Soteska bo ponovno zaživela

3. RENESANČNA SOTESKA,

ki bo v nedeljo, 7. junija 2026, od 9.30 dalje.

Druga junijska nedelja bo namenjena srednjemu veku in renesansi – času vitezov, graščakov, trubadurjev in srednjeveških sejmov.

 Sodelovale bodo številne historične, viteške in plesne skupine iz Slovenije in Hrvaške, posebno atrakcijo letošnje prireditve pa predstavlja mednarodno priznana skupina Hector iz Slovaške, ki s svojimi nastopi navdušuje obiskovalce po vsej Evropi.

 Obiskovalci bodo lahko doživeli:

• srednjeveško in renesančno tržnico,
• viteške tabore,
• prikaze lokostrelstva in mečevanja,
• srednjeveške in renesančne plese,
• glasbo in komedijante,
• orožarno in historične prikaze življenja,
• vezilje, berače, dvorne norčke in zabavljače,
• ter številna presenečenja za velike in male obiskovalce.

Posebno doživetje bo tudi:

• srečanje s knezom Janezom Vajkardom Auerspergom,
• raziskovalna grajska pot,
• lokostrelske in spretnostne igre,
• ustvarjalne delavnice za vse generacije,
• ter bogata ponudba v srednjeveški krčmi na prostem.

 Otroci bodo lahko sodelovali v nagradni raziskovalni poti in za trenutek postali pravi mali vitezi in grajske dame.

 Renesančna Soteska ni le prireditev — je vrnitev v čas grajskih legend, srednjeveškega utripa in renesančnega življenja.

 Vljudno vabljeni, da skupaj z nami oživite bogato zgodovino Soteske!

 Z veseljem vas pričakujemo in se že sedaj veselimo snidenja z vami!

RENAISSANCE SOTESKA When the Manor of Soteska Comes Back to Life …

 Dear visitors,

 The remarkable history of the old castle and the Renaissance manor of Soteska, together with the mysterious stories and legends of the noble Auersperg family, once again invite you to a truly unique historical experience.

Within the picturesque setting of the manor courtyard at Soteska, the

3rd RENAISSANCE SOTESKA

will come to life on

Sunday, June 7th, 2026, starting at 9:30 AM.

The second Sunday of June will be dedicated to the Middle Ages and the Renaissance – a time of knights, noblemen, troubadours, medieval fairs, and courtly life.

 Many historical, knightly, and dance groups from Slovenia and Croatia will participate in the event, while this year’s special attraction will be the internationally renowned group Hector from Slovakia, whose spectacular performances impress audiences throughout Europe.

 Visitors will experience:

• a medieval and Renaissance marketplace,
• knight camps,
• demonstrations of archery and sword fighting,
• medieval and Renaissance dances,
• historical music and comedians,
• an armoury and displays of historical life,
• embroiderers, beggars, court jesters, and entertainers,
• as well as many surprises for both children and adults.

Special highlights will also include:

• an encounter with Prince Johann Weikhard of Auersperg,
• a castle exploration trail,
• archery and skill games,
• creative workshops for all generations,
• and a rich offer in the medieval open-air tavern.

 Children will be able to participate in a prize exploration trail and, for a moment, become little knights and noble ladies themselves.

 Renaissance Soteska is not merely an event — it is a journey back to the age of castle legends, medieval spirit, and Renaissance life.

 You are warmly invited to join us and help bring the rich history of Soteska back to life!

 We look forward to welcoming you and sharing this unforgettable experience together.
