Discover Boston’s Medieval Past with the Boston Hanse Group
Step back in time and explore the rich merchant history of Lincolnshire! In anticipation of Boston’s highly anticipated International Hanseatic Day celebrations on May 30th, we invite you to a special interactive session at Boston Library.
Come along to meet enthusiastic members of the town’s Hanse Group and learn all about this influential 13th-century European trading association. Discover the days of the historic Boston Fair, when merchants from across Europe gathered in the town to trade exotic goods like fine wines, luxury furs, fresh fish, and hunting hawks.
