Fair revived Tumska

Yes Tumska should look good. Last weekend Plock promenade revived, and all because of Fair Tumski. Sites of banks ceased to poke in the eye of tourists and residents of Płock.

The official opening took place on Friday at 12 at the entrance to the Museum of Mazowiecki. Who was lucky to be caught up for a free cake. There were many volunteers, but the cake was large. Project was initiated by Peter Mieszkowicz president of the Association of Friends of the Museum of Mazowiecki said: - I am pleased that Fair gathered two hundred exhibitors. Willing to arrival, there were many, but come election. Everyone has something interesting to offer. Some even invited commute. Preparations for the event lasted until the last minute. - I do not sleep 48 hours, I'm after another cup of coffee - he tired, but satisfied by the organizer. A lot of work put in organizing the Fair, also employees of the Museum of Mazowiecki.
Specially made for the occasion to issue a special ducats and thalers, a fair participants can pay in selected stores. Every day go out newspaper "Express Island". Narutowicza Square turned into a medieval town. The length of the Island and Grodzka were seeded into houses, wooden stalls.

Pots and pans
Crowds besieged płocczan and fair visitors from morning to evening. And there was something to watch. Mainly arrived from across the Polish, but there was room and visitors from abroad. Mainly dominated by old objects. Lovers of World War II, viewed the various rifles and occasional koziki. At the same booth also included a collection of signet rings. For example, one came from the Warsaw Uprising, a few other once adorned the fingers of the Nazi executioners. Mainly interest aroused men erotic pictures from years ago, on which their charms presented very sloppy-negligee lady. Calmly could also furnish and equip a flat. To buy a lot of antique chairs. Elsewhere, various clocks. Hanging, standing, to choose the color. Beautifully decorated porcelain. Candlesticks, tableware, bowls. Someone else presented wonderfully decorated with oil lamps from the late nineteenth century. The cost of a trifle, a few thousand, and it still lights the midrange. The most expensive lamp prices are mid-range cars. Antiques mixed with contemporary. Proponents of unconventional treatments can buy jewelery, which supports the earth's magnetic field. Ceramic piggy banks, jewelry, wooden sculptures, books and more.

A feast for the palate
Very popular food. Huge loaves of bread baked the traditional way, it was a delicious spread with lard. There were also traditional meats. The thirsty waiting "Psiwo juniper." - It Kurpiowski drink juniper berries, hops and honey - the saleswoman introduces the mysterious name of the drink, which is also a flavor similar to honey and beer. - Name Psiwo comes from, because once the odkorkowaniu dishes, distinctive sound coming out wypuszczanego gas, so well known today fizzy drinks - he adds. The only difference is that in Psiwie not feel carbon dioxide. Now the drink is 0.5 percent alcohol, but in a few days to take power and can easily compete with beer. The fans waited liquors liquor drinking honey, which is widely advocated another exhibitor. - First mention of honey comes from the tenth century. He writes about it in his chronicle of Ibrahim ibn Jakub. In fact, everyone at home can also create your own mead. What is needed is a good species pure honey and wine yeast, raisins are not fit. More details can be found in specialist books and the Internet. It turns out that in Poland, in contrast for example to Canada (80 companies), there are few manufacturers of traditional Slavic drink. - Personally, I recommend a company of the three cities. Bielsko-Biala has Łysoń, Lublin-Polmos Tomaszów Mazowiecki, and of course where the apiary is Thomas Jaros. For several years Mr. Thomas regularly win awards in many competitions - liquor commended the saleswoman. Mead has another advantage. It is dense and thus its effect is extended.

Barbaric fun
Will come to Plock from warriors' stronghold Trzygłowa Teams "from Stettin, who repeatedly gave a demonstration fight. As you point out they are not knights, but warriors. Some members of the team comes not only from the bristles and even a few from abroad. For many years engaged in exploring and popularizing the culture of the early Middle Ages Slavs. The whole world has already arrived, taking part in many festivals and working with film crews. The leader, namely the Governor is Igor Górewicz, the team bearing the name Wojciechowice, and by the Normans called Ingvar. - Create a barbaric, tribal community. Of us can say that the human species symbolize defiant. Wojami we are also in the "civilian". Our odtwórstwo is as far-fetched. Not only is the art of disguise, we also transfer old Slavic culture. It's a myth that we know nothing about our ancestors - Ingvar denies. Of course, every day of his colleagues Igor does not wear a sword at your side. The team gave the city several times Trzygłowa show of skill. They showed different ways of fighting, and demonstrated the demonstration duels with swords, axes, spears and axes Danish. During the final scene, Igor Górewicz wojom ordered to pay since they were married spectators. Suddenly, to the dismay of the audience, waving his arms wojacy and rushed with loud shouts of the crowd. Fortunately, in time to stop, making it quite clear that this is just a joke. After reaction of the audience could see that they actually thought that for a moment lose their wallets. - When the train before the shows, it often happens that we're inches bruised and sore. We have broken noses, blood is flowing from the wounds, and it happens that someone even lose a finger - vividly tells Górewicz. Indeed, sometimes the knights gave the impression that they were fighting for real. That is why Governor from time to time he shouted to his subordinates to believe the flowers that are on the lawn converted into a battlefield.

The Time Machine
After Tumska cyclists rode on ancient bicycles with characteristic big wheel. Fakir presented a giant serpent, which everyone could pat. Gad was very pleased with the sunny weather, which can not be said of its owner. Organ-grinder with a colorful parrot, who competed with the music Kapela yard to Plock. Civil and fashion show tai chi, the market went skateboarders and bikers. Before the hall was a re-enactment of the battle between the NKVD and Polish partisans. In a word, has happened, and who was the trumpet. - It's a shame that such fairs are only once a year - summed up one of płocczan.

How to pay for Fair Tumski, only ducats

More and more interesting is going to be the June Fair Island. This is when it will premiere a book tentatively called "Legends and stories of Plock." Thanks to her we know little known secrets such as the cathedral church of St. Or visit Trinity Joseph Wybickiego in Plock.

The second edition of the Fair, organized jointly by the Association of Friends of the Museum and the Museum of Punjab Mazowiecki, is scheduled for June 11-13 - during the Days of the History of Plock. It is primarily a holiday hobby, from collectors of stamps and money, by retailers and suppliers of vinyl broader art, the collectors of thimbles and buttons. Even now, as Paul admits Mieszkowicz from the Association, to participate in the event of Plock expressed approximately 180 exhibitors. And that's not the end of entries.

They can be purchased at the main counter exchange, and then pay in shops PSS consent, whether Jewish inn set in the Fair. The case is so serious that Paul Mieszkowicz prepared a special decree of the articles, having to justify the use of crowns - modeled on the original 200 years ago. Because the idea of the means of payment at the Fair is to celebrate the 200th year anniversary of the Duchy of Warsaw, ticket box office.

In the introduction, the decree states: "Having learned from the experience of our ancestors in the bicentenary year Billetów Kassowych Xięstwa Warsaw to commemorate this anniversary, and wanting to remedy the deficiency takoż gotowizny and revive iey cyrkulacyją Fair trade commodity Tumski, grounded on continuous experience in our Department suffered the effects of Plock successful with the creation of cash Billetów; umyśliliśmy Fair also on our similar use of funds ".

What will be the rate? Consistent with the contemporary tradition. Then one thaler was the equivalent of 6 zł, and one ducat - three thalers, or 18 zł.

It's not the end of things. The organizers invited a group of reconstructive IV Infantry Regiment of the Duchy of Warsaw, which further opens the recruiting section. And your book will be released today, having a working title of "Legends and stories of Plock", according to the idea of Anna Tchaikovsky. In the book, which will release the Association of Friends of the Museum of Mazovia, will be more than 20 legends and tales of Plock. Many certainly not well known. Like for example the story of the battle the troops Masława and Casimir the Restorer at the mouth of the Vistula River Brzeźnica in 1047, or the visits of Joseph Wybickiego in Plock, on orders from Napoleon. Many residents of Płock invited to the salons of the Legions and co-author of "Song of the Polish Legions in Italy" or "national anthem". In the salons of the time measured by the clock, usually placed in visible locations. During one such visit Wybicki had to say: "In this house, Pole to Pole, will speak Polish." At this point the clock began to play "Poland has not perished," which caused great joy among all - saw it as an early announcement of independence.

Each will bear the legend illustrated Neli Lewandowska, artist of the Youth Culture. King Matt the First. While the rest of the book is to have a size and cost zeszytowy 5 zł. It is not yet known for her effort. Knowing, however, interest in such publications płocczan should not be small. Proof?
