A reenactment of Hermann's Battle, a.k.a., the Battle of Teutoburg Forest, is taking place in South Central Minnesota. About 100 reenactors are taking part in the 9 A.D. battle between Roman legionaries and Germanic Barbarians. The equipment for roman style equipment is about $2,000 while the German equipment is somewhere in the same range. The reenactment will take part in 12 scenes, and the experience will be enhanced with sound effects of clashing swords and will be projected through KNUJ radio based in the same town as the reenactment, New Ulm. They said that they reenacted this specific battle because it was one of the turning points in the decline of expansion into Germany.
