Hey everyone. I recently had to reboot my computer and lost all of my website links including a link to a polish armourer who made the most beautiful helmets. I just can't seem to find the website again,so if anyone has an idea of who I am talking about please sent me the link to the site...
thanks
Nicolai

While on the topic of Poland, last year we stopped to see the Teutonic Knight castle at Gniew. Nice spot - they also had a jousting range and apparently an armory where they make swords. Unfortunately I did not see them or talk to anyone relevant because, ironically, they were off that day in a huge 1000-person re-enactment of the final defeat of the Teutonic Knights.
Had I known...talk about a near miss!
On the same trip we went to see Malbork, the reconstructed headquarters of the Teutonic order in their latter hey-day. This was the biggest castle in Europe in the 14th century. Frickin' un-believable - a castle the size of a University with a Cloister in the center. Even my wife - who is usually merely tolerant of this stuff - was impressed and had fun.
It's a must see in Europe. Also there were a few neat T.K. imprints in Gdansk, which is a beautiful city.
