The SCA is an international organization dedicated to researching and re-creating the arts and skills of pre-17th-century Europe. Our "Known World" consists of 19 kingdoms, with over 30,000 members residing in countries around the world. Members, dressed in clothing of the Middle Ages and Renaissance, attend events which feature tournaments, royal courts, feasts, dancing, various classes & workshops, and more.

Gyldenholt, founded by Duke Armand and Duchess Diana de Savigny in 1979, is one of twelve baronies currently in existence within the Kingdom of Caid in the Society for Creative Anachronism (SCA). Our current Baron and Baroness are Their Excellencies Ursul Vladislavl' Pravnuk and Colette de Montpellier.

The Barony is located in the mundane lands of Orange County, California with the Barony of Angels to the north, Lyondemere to the west, Dreiburgen to the northeast, Califia to the southeast, and the Pacific Ocean to the southwest. View a map of the kingdom here.

We are pleased to say that the Barony is quite active, both on a Baronial and Kingdom level. We have many activities in various areas of Medieval and Renaissance studies. If you are new to the SCA and/or you would like more information about Gyldenholt and the SCA in general, please visit the Newcomers Page.

May, 2012

reetings from Their Excellencies,

We are quickly drawing nearer to the end of our tenure. BUT, we still have some things to do before we step down. For example, Baron's Feast! Please come out and join us on Sunday, May 6th to Irvine Regional Park. There will be plenty of food, games and fantastic people to fill your day (and stomach). So bring your arts projects, comfy chair (if you would like something other than the benches), feast gear and appetites!

With Anniversary coming, please take some time to think of those that you would like to recommend for any of the Baronial Awards (service, arts and science, and fighting), and for the Foret d'Or (for outstanding service to the barony over the years). If you have any recommendations, please send them to us as soon as possible. Their Royal Majesties will also be in attendance, so Kingdom level awards should also be looked at (please use the online award recommendation on the Kingdom website).

We look forward to seeing all of you at Baron's Feast!

In Service,
Baron Ursul & Baroness Colette
