Captal de Buch

Captal de Buch

Captal de Buch (C de B) strives to portray the mercenary lifestyle of the people engaged in the process of fighting under the banner of the English and Edward III. Members actively research and portray the key time period within the history of that period of life living in France and engaging in a Mercenary lifestyle from 1360, through to 1389, that covers the period of the first peace in the Hundred Years War and through to and include the period of the second outbreak of the war.

Group Members engage in living history displays, depictions and battle re-enactments of the 14th Century utilising arms, armour, textiles and furnishings, all carefully crafted as historically accurate as possible within the constraints of modern society. The Captal de Buch encourages within it’s membership, and the wider community, the concept of chivalry and the values of honour and loyalty whilst endeavouring to raise each person’s self-esteem, confidence and acceptance in a welcoming, inclusive and like-minded community.
