Rowany is a group of people involved in medieval and renaissance martial arts, period and traditional crafts (including experimental archaeology – working out how something worked by making it), researching the middle ages, or simply socialising in costume at medieval themed events.

We are part of an international organisation called the Society for Creative Anachronism (SCA) (check out a brief overview of the SCA here).

Rowany, or “The Barony of Rowany”, is located in the Sydney Metropolitan region (and other parts) of New South Wales, Australia. 

Want to do things with us? Anyone, no matter what age or level of interest, is welcome to come along to our events and gatherings to find out what we are about. Scroll down for our calendar, or you can find us on Facebook: Barony of Rowany

– We have a regular, casual practice (non-costumed) every Monday night; talk to Ilona when you arrive and she’ll set you up, more details here: Regular Events
– Want to talk to someone just in general about what we do? Email Salbiorg at rowany.hospitaller@gmail.com – she’s our contact for newcomers, and she’s happy to answer your questions.
