The Foto:Sofia AnderssonNorwegian  HeraldrySociety (NHF) will again this year be taking part in the popular "Oslo Medieval Festival" held near the site of the city´s origins. Entertainment for the whole familly is on the  program.

"How about designing your own coat of arms? At the Medieval Festival you can experience heraldry in practical use. Visit our stand and learn about "tinctures and metals", "heraldic beasts"  and bold knights!" says Trond Svandal.  

With  Kristhild Marnseg and helped by several members, Trond will be around from 11am on Saturday 19th June and Sunday 20th June.

Amongst other things Wangensteen presents some wonderfull "e-books" such as  "Birgitte Knudsdatter Seeblads Norwegian Armorial and arms from churches in Tønsberg"  and  "Norwegian Noble´s arms in colour"

The  e-books can be flipped through, and zoomed in to any page to enjoy the illustrations.

Heraldic "workshop"
Written by Ass.nettredaktør   
Monday, 07 June 2010 19:16

This summer´s "workshop" on mondag 14th June takes the form of a visit to the home of NHF member Henrik Jørgen Huitfeldt, who has kindly invited us to Oscarsgt. 31, Oslo. Mr Huitfeldt owns many items of heraldic interest, which he is pleased to show us. These include a large chest bearing several coats of arms which some of the visitors may be able to shed some light on! The Huitfeldt familly will  naturally form a focal theme, but other heraldic titbits will also be found.  For directions, see  the item in our events calendar.

The calendar has also been recently updated with planned events for the rest of the year.
