Welcome
to Schlaraffia
in Pretoria!
Humour is the best medicine – and true friendship the greatest gift. Welcome to the Schlaraffen realm Castra Praetoria, where people with a sense of art, wit and joie de vivre come together. Not to be explained – to be experienced!
Why Schlaraffia?
Schlaraffia is not an ordinary club – it is an experience. A world apart, where everyday life stays outside and the inner sense of play reawakens.
Humour with Style
Wordplay, satire, self-irony – all with style. At Schlaraffia, witty minds laugh with each other, not at each other. Humour is mandatory; eye-rolling is forbidden.
True Friendship
No superficial networking, no business calculation. The friendship among Schlaraffen is deep, honest and spans the globe.
Art & Culture
Poems, speeches, music, sketches – everyone brings their talent. The weekly Sippungen are stage and stage magic combined.
At Home Worldwide
Over 200 realms on 5 continents. Wherever you travel: among Schlaraffen you are immediately at home – connected by German as the common language and the Schlaraffen game.
The Inner Child
Seriousness stays outside. Inside, playing, dreaming and laughing are encouraged. Schlaraffia reminds us why life is allowed to be light.
Ritual & Adventure
Knights and squires, realm and throne, coats of arms and medals – the medieval role-play makes every evening an unforgettable experience.
Curious?
The first step is the easiest: write to us, call – or simply drop by. A non-binding visit to a Sippung is free and commits you to nothing at all.
