We are established in the oldest city of Holland. A city with a rich history, but unfortunately much is destroyed during World War 2. In and around Nijmegen is a lot to see and do for tourists. Grote Markt, de Waalkade, Koningsplein and the Molenstraat  are well known for it's beauty, shops, pubs and restaurants.
As a tourist  you have to visit: Grote Markt, Kronenburger Park, Valkhof Park (no picture) and of course the City Hall.

       
    

Nijmegen is surrounded by very different landscapes;
Municipal: The city itself and living areas.
Rustic: The Betuwe with Medieval castle Doornenburg, where the movie Floris was filmed.
Polder land: de Ooij, North-East close to Nijmegen.
Hills: Beek - Ubbergen - Berg en Dal. It’s a little bit like England or the Eifel in Germany.
Woods: East- and South-East Nijmegen, kilometers of woods, all the way to for instance. Groesbeek, to Berg en Dal - Beek and to Ubbergen.
Nijmegen and surroundings, an area to take walks and to be proud of.

Concerning re-enactment there is a Medieval event every year, organized by Gebroeders van Limburg

 

We no longer have photos of Roman Reenactment, due to copy rights issues Also in the Roman field there are several activities in and around Nijmegen.

 

Langenort (swordfight society) is based in Nijmegen.

 

There are 2 LARP schools from Draconis One in Middelburg (Zeeland) and one in Nijmegen (Gelderland)

 


LARP society Arcana settled in Rotterdam.


We are enthusiastic concerning the historical fantasy world and we hope the inhabitants of the Eastern part of our country will share our enthusiasm also. 

We started Pirates Cave in December 2005.

Because of interest in history, fantasy and reenactment the idea was born to start something for ourselves. Since the day we started (mid 2005), we daily work late hours.

Even now we invest as much time as possible in our enterprise. We want to grow and on the other hand we love what we do. We are searching for new ideas constantly, particularly for clothing and accessories. We adjust standard clothing, but we also started with creating leather articles. We also started to create Victorian and Dickens cloaks, Dickens capelets and pirate Baroque coats. Now followed with Mad Hatter inspired adjusted jackets and shirts (female), Mad Hatter Steampunk hat pins, Viking Beowulf and Grendel inspired wraps and waistcoats, Robin Hood inspired adjusted shirts, Steampunk waistcoats, jabots in all styles, The Tudors doublets and cloaks, pirate waistcoats, Sheriff of Nottingham wraps and waistcoats, Sweeney Todd inspired waistcoats, Bandidas Mad Hatter inspired waistcoats (female), Steampunk Old West inspired waistcoats, and Mad Hatter Gipsy inspired waistcoats. This will be more in the future!


Our goal:
When it’s up to us, we want to expand in the most possible ways, concerning clothing and accessories. We can’t do this all by ourselves, of course.
We need you, the customer!

We would appreciate if customers would share their ideas and wishes with us. In this way we could try to be of service in the future.
If you give us the chance, then we do everything that’s in our power to provide an excellent service.
