Côle Medieval Festival

About Côle Medieval Festival
Every year, the La Côle Medieval Festival brings together a historical lecture, an early music concert, and a medieval dance workshop in Saint-Pierre-de-Côle, all centered around a new theme for each edition. In 2024, Katy Bernard, a medievalist from the University of Bordeaux Montaigne, gave a talk tracing the songs from William of Aquitaine to Eleanor, followed by a concert by the La Flama ensemble dedicated to 12th-century Occitan troubadours; a medieval dance workshop and a patchwork exhibition on the theme of troubadours rounded out the weekend.
