Historical Reenactment
Living History in Europe and Overseas
Reenactment is a sophisticated hobby for anyone interested in a particular period of military history. The participants study their selected period of history in great detail, make parts of their uniform and equipment by hand, and practise the military life and drill of the period. In order to share the experience of the hobby with others, these students of military history join other enthusiasts in historical reenactment units, and these units gather to recreate battles and military camps throughout Germany and Europe. Many individual reenactors and some units travel to abroad on occasion, to participate in larger reenactments at Borodino, Waterloo, Gettysburg and many other historic sites.
