Welcome to the Shire of Nithgaard!

We are members of the Society for Creative Anachronism (SCA), an international organization dedicated to researching and re-creating the arts and skills of the pre-17th-century world.  Our "Known World" consists of 20 kingdoms, with over 30,000 members residing in countries around the world.  Members, dressed in clothing of the Middle Ages and Renaissance, attend events which may feature tournaments, arts exhibits, classes, workshops, dancing, feasts, and more.  Our "royalty" hold courts at which they recognize and honor members for their contributions to the group.

Please take the time to explore our site and learn about the many and varied talents of those involved in the SCA.  Find information on the SCA in both its local and far-reaching forms, and discover the arts and activities that make the SCA such an amazing organization.

It is our hope that the following pages will help you to find the information you seek.

New to the SCA?  — or just new to the Shire?  You'll find the info you need to get started right here!
