✨ KNIGHTLY GAMES OF THE RAB CROSSBOWMEN – A JOURNEY BACK TO THE MIDDLE AGES ON RAB! ✨
📍 St. Christopher’s Square, Rab
📅 May 9 | May 30 | July 27 | August 15
The magnificent tradition of the Rab crossbowmen’s knightly games, dating back to 1364, was revived in 1995 with the founding of the Rab Crossbowmen Association. Along with the return of the games, impressive medieval costumes were also brought back to life, adding to the atmosphere of bygone times.
The knightly games take place several times a year at St. Christopher’s Square:
🏹 May 9 – Rab City Day
🏹 May 30 – Croatian Statehood Day
🏹 July 27 – Feast of St. Christopher, patron saint of Rab (folk celebration and tournament)
🏹 August 15 – Feast of the Assumption (folk celebration and tournament)
Come experience the excitement of knightly tournaments, watch the skilled crossbowmen in action, and immerse yourself in the magic of the Middle Ages on one of the most beautiful island stages!
