On Sunday, 18 October 2026, Anakron Living History had the pleasure of participating in “Memories of the Għargħur Landscape” (Il-Memorji tax-Xagħri), a cultural event held at the Selmun Interpretation Centre as part of European Heritage Week.

The event was organised by Arkeo in collaboration with the Mellieħa Local Council, Historical Re-Enactment Group Malta (HRGM) and the Superintendence of Cultural Heritage, bringing together organisations and individuals dedicated to preserving and promoting Malta's historical and cultural heritage.

The programme celebrated the history, traditions and cultural landscape of the Selmun area through historical talks, exhibitions and medieval activities, offering visitors an opportunity to discover different aspects of Malta's past.

Anakron Living History contributed to the event through medieval reenactment and historical interpretation, recreating aspects of everyday life and social interaction from the medieval period. Dressed in period attire, our participants helped bring the historical setting to life, allowing visitors to experience a glimpse of the customs and atmosphere of the time.

The occasion also provided an opportunity to strengthen collaboration between heritage organisations, reenactment groups and the local community, demonstrating the importance of making history accessible and engaging for audiences of all ages.

We extend our appreciation to Arkeo, the Mellieħa Local Council, Historical Re-Enactment Group Malta (HRGM) and the Superintendence of Cultural Heritage for their collaboration and involvement in organising this cultural event.

We would also like to thank all participating reenactors, organisers and visitors who contributed to its success.
