About

Ever dreamed of wielding a Viking bow? Now’s your chance to make one!

Become a bowyer for a day with our Flatbow Making workshop. Led by the skilled craftsmen of Sylvankin, you’ll craft, tiller, and string your very own traditional flatbow in the shadow of St.Saviour’s church in the DIG garden.

Designed for adults, these beginner-friendly sessions offer a hands-on glimpse into everyday Viking life. Spaces are limited, so we recommend booking in advance to secure your place.
