The Clann
The Clann was
formed in January 1986 by like minded Scotsmen and Scots
women to promote, preserve and
create awareness for Scottish Culture and Heritage. In a relatively short period of
time we achieved our initial aim in creating one of the finest living history societies in
the country. From a few members we have grown to an organisation known and respected
throughout Europe for it's professionalism, authenticity and very high standards of skill
in the use of period weapons with our priority being safety at all times. All this
has been achieved by study, research, training and great pride in what we do.
The Clann has over the years built up a fearsome
reputation, not only as Scotland's top fight display team, but also as Europe's most
entertaining and authentic sword and combat group, taking part in festivals and tours in
Scotland, England, Brittany,France,Belgium, Ukraine and Holland.
The Clann has made many friends in all parts of
the world who support their efforts to educate and entertain the public using an unique
blend of visual and satirical humour to educate and promote Scotland's rich and varied
past.
The
Clann's aims and goals have changed and grown over the years. We are now involved in film,
television, theatre, corporate entertainment, education, community productions and
historical festivals. Providing a wide range of services from technical support, costume
design, props, fight & stunt arrangements to historical research.
We do have our own production company producing
and participating in period films and an entertainment company providing a full package
for any event indoor or outdoor.
Please feel free explore our web site and
examine some of the many photos on archive or even watch a video clip showing some of the
weapons we wield.
