Lithuanians
We are delighted to see so many proud
Lithuanian-Americans getting involved in the
17th century re-enactment movement in the
last few years.
Lithuanian and Poles established a unique
system of government in Central and
Eastern Europe for hundreds of years called
the 'Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth'.
Today, side by side Lithuanian, Ukrainian,
Belorussian and Polish re-enactors across
the US are teaching the American public
about our glorious heritage. How once this
powerful Kingdom that stretched from the
Baltic to the Black Sea, from the gates of
Moscow to the borders of the Holy Roman
Empire.
Let us tailor you a 16th or 17th century
Lithuanian cavalryman's or nobleman's outfit
just for you.
