On 5 November, the final conference of the TESTEREP project took place, where the results of several years of research were presented in an engaging and accessible way. The researchers themselves guided the audience through their latest insights, interspersed with a broad selection of the many outreach initiatives that emerged from the project.
The atmosphere was further enriched by live performances of the Ballads of Testerep by Broder, drawing the audience fully into the story of the vanished island. Visitors were also able to taste the Testerep bread, developed in collaboration with food archaeologist Jeroen Van Vaerenbergh and bakery De Cock.
The conference proved to be a highly successful conclusion to a project that brought together science, history, and creativity.
