Even though the saying ‘clothes make the man’ only dates back to the 19th century, its core message already applied in the Middle Ages: clothing makes it possible to assess a person at first glance and assign them to a social group. Medieval clothing is therefore a central characteristic of the various social classes. Whether serf, farmer, citizen, nobleman or member of the clergy: they were easily distinguished by their clothing.
With the right clothing from our medieval shop – such as shirts, tunics, belts and cloaks – you can transform yourself into a member of any social class in no time at all. The right ‘garment’ identifies you as a simple, hard-working serf or elevates you to the nobility. You alone decide whether authenticity is important to you, reflecting medieval clothing down to the smallest detail, or whether you want to let your imagination run wild and use medieval clothing in a wide variety of cuts and colours to create your fantasy character and emphasise their individuality.
And if you feel more drawn to Nordic cultures, we also have tunics and accessories that will allow you to immerse yourself in the rough and adventurous world of the Vikings – perfect for reenactments, LARP or medieval festivals.

Armour – Masterpieces of leather and steel
When we ‘arm ourselves’ for a task or project today, we do so linguistically in the tradition of the Middle Ages. Whether it's a divine mission, a campaign against a tyrant or a quest for honour and wealth, without the right equipment, any undertaking is doomed to failure. Worse still, without the most reliable armour possible, the adventure often ends prematurely in death or at least serious injury and lifelong.
Armour represents the colourful diversity of the Middle Ages: from simple gambesons to chainmail, which set the style in the Middle Ages, to imposing knight's armour, the era, social status and, last but not least, the size of one's purse determined the type of armour and, with it, one's individual chances of survival in the heat of.
In our Medieval Shop, you will find exactly the right armour to suit you and your character, without having to own land or pawn your jewels. Choose from a particular era and create an authentic character of that time, or let your imagination run wild and equip your human or mystical hero for the challenges, epic adventures or history-making battles that lie ahead.

Foam weapons & LARP swords for heroes
In the Middle Ages, might was right. The right weapon could shift the balance of power. Even armies that were outnumbered could hold their own against a supposedly superior opponent with advanced, effective and skilfully used weapons, and no epic hero would ever have faced a mystical opponent without feeling the cold steel of a medieval sword, sturdy shield, or razor-sharp dagger in his hands.
In close combat, the choice of weapons was considered existential: handling, penetrating power, damage or range were the decisive factors between victory and defeat, glory and shame, life and death.
Whether LARP or reenactment: when words fail, weapons must speak. To ensure that no one is harmed, our medieval shop offers a wide selection of foam weapons that, despite their authentic appearance, pose no risk of injury and can be used safely at your event. In addition to authentic replicas of historical weapons, we offer you the opportunity to let your imagination run wild beyond the boundaries of history books and identify your character at first glance as an opponent who knows how to hold his own in battle when it matters.

Medieval accessories – small things of great importance
A true lover of the Middle Ages – whether within its historically accurate boundaries or as the basis for a fantastical world full of mystical creatures, monsters and magical beings – is characterised by their attention to detail. A digital watch on a magician's wrist is just as out of place here as a camping stove in a military camp. The small, seemingly insignificant details, medieval accessories that are carefully tailored to your character and their individual story, make all the difference.
A bag or belt buckle that suits your hero is not only a visual detail that rounds off your LARP or reenactment event, but also connects your hobby with your everyday life, is an insider feature or simply an extravagant eye-catcher at school, university or in the office.
In addition, our shop ‘Medieval and More’ offers everything you need to make camp life during your LARP or reenactment adventure an experience that transports you to another world in another time, down to the smallest detail.

Medieval and More – Our passion is the Middle Ages –since 2007
LARP – Adventure awaits you, be part of it live!
For some it's a tongue twister, for others it's four letters that represent a whole world: LARP or Live Action Role Play is a hobby that has been captivating participants of all backgrounds, genders and ages internationally for more than half a century.
For a few hours or days, slipping into the role of a historical or fictional character from the Middle Ages and transcending the boundaries of science to immerse oneself in a world full of adventure and magic is more than just a respite from sober everyday life for true enthusiasts. It is the small and large details, clothing, armour, weapons, and even everyday objects that open the door to the medieval fantasy world and ignite the magic of the moment.
Our medieval shop opens chests and chambers filled to the brim with everything that inspires beginners and professionals in LARP and makes every event an unforgettable experience. Whether you want to equip yourself completely, round off your LARP character with details or take your first step back in time with a single item of clothing: at Medieval and More you will find what you are looking for – and more.
Reenactment – Experience history up close with Medieval and More
The Middle Ages are among the earliest historical periods for which sources provide a richly detailed picture. Annals, chronicles, monastery histories, biographies and state records offer deep insights into everyday life, especially among the nobility and clergy. Reenactment enthusiasts draw on these insights when bringing history to life. Their attention to detail knows no bounds. Clothing and equipment must be historically accurate, as must the behaviour befitting one's social status and the reenactment of historical events.
The range in our Medieval Shop is aimed at medieval enthusiasts of all kinds. This includes both live action role play, with its focus on the individual design of fantastic characters, and detailed reenactment with a focus on different eras of the Middle Ages.
If you are also looking for clothing, armour, weapons and accessories with which you can create and develop your reenactment character in a historically accurate manner, you are sure to find what you are looking for in our diverse range.
Costumes – Travel back in time with Medieval and More
Modern carnival has its origins in the Middle Ages. Pagan customs and Christian traditions came together in the celebration of the beginning of Lent. To this day, the attempt to shed one's own identity, at least for a short time, and slip into the role of someone else through clothing and costumes has lost none of its appeal.
The Middle Ages offer an almost inexhaustible pool of figures and characters that can be portrayed authentically or imaginatively with the right costume. Elaborately adorned damsels, nobly dressed princes, knights armed to the teeth, cunning thieves or legendary magicians – the right costume from Medieval and More is your ticket to the world of LARP or re-enactment.
If you don't want to turn your enthusiasm for the Middle Ages into a hobby, but ‘just’ want to attract attention at the next carnival party or make a particularly extravagant appearance at the next festival, you will find a large selection of clothing, costumes and accessories for every occasion and budget in our online shop. We also offer the right costumes for theatre and film projects or extraordinary marketing events, both historically accurate and mystically imaginative.
