Children aged nine to twelve make a Merovingian shield in an archaeology workshop in Chartres. Questions about the Franks and their clothing introduce life in early medieval Gaul. The practical activity links these historical themes to the exhibition À l’aube du Moyen Âge. Children work with clay while exploring the beginnings of the medieval period.
