On the Third Sunday of Advent, we light three candles - a perfect occasion to share the oldest preserved candles found north of the Alps.
The candles were made from beeswax around 1,400 years ago. They were found in the early #medieval burial site in Oberflacht. The damp environment preserved them in good condition.

We've got great panels and talks and some really interesting potential workshop topics coming up this year, do sign up and do nudge others in our direction if you know someone who'd find this useful!
