Tournament in Historical Archery

IN THE TENSION OF THE BOW AND HISTORY

Historical archery at Bled Castle

When archers in medieval attire gather in the castle setting, Bled Castle transforms into a stage for a respectful tribute to tradition. Archery here is not just a sport – it is a skill, a history, and a sense of belonging, woven into every drawn bow and released arrow. With its majestic backdrop, Bled Castle adds a special charm to the event that goes beyond competition – it becomes a meeting of time, place, and mastery.

Step into the age of chivalry, where every shot carries a story and tradition strikes straight to the heart.
CASTLE TOURNAMENT UNDER THE BLUE SKY

Competition in the embrace of history

The event takes place at specially prepared locations around the castle, where competitors from Slovenia and abroad test their skills on various types of targets – from 3D animal replicas to historical reproductions in a natural setting. The final duels are held in the castle park, where the best archers compete for honor and the title of champion. At the same time, visitors can view an exhibition dedicated to a master bow maker – a tribute to creativity, perseverance, and the art that lives on in every precise shot.
