Germanic games - How the Vikings and Germanic tribes played

Board games and dice games, ball games and competitive games... Games and other forms of leisure activities provide a glimpse into the culture of a society, sometimes revealing more than dry historical data. Above all, however, you can experience a culture by playing it.

Games such as tablut, hnefatafl, halatafl, dice fighting, kubb or hobbyhorse racing are exciting, sometimes quite challenging, sometimes cheerful and fun - but they always guarantee enjoyable afternoons and evenings, even today. You don't have to gamble away your house and farm, as the Germanic tribes sometimes did...
