Partner

The EPCC of the Somme are long-standing partners of Concordia. After a first collaboration in 2019 on the archaeological site of Samara, the EPCC of the Somme has decided to renew our partnership for an exciting new project: the exploration and enhancement of the underground tunnels of the Doullens citadel. This initiative reflects a shared commitment to preserving and showcasing historical heritage while engaging young international volunteers in a mission of discovery and cultural transmission. The city of Doullens and the EPCC are fully dedicated to welcoming volunteers and will ensure a friendly and enriching experience. Many interactions with locals and community members are planned, providing a deep immersion into the region’s culture and history. This work camp is a unique opportunity to actively contribute to the preservation of an iconic site while sharing meaningful moments with the local community.

Location

Doullens is located in the northern part of the Somme, at the crossroads between Amiens, Arras, and Abbeville. This strategic position places it within easy reach of historical and cultural landmarks, including the stunning Gothic cathedral of Amiens, a UNESCO World Heritage site, and the vibrant city of Arras, known for its beautiful squares and underground tunnels. Surrounded by picturesque countryside, Doullens offers a peaceful setting perfect for outdoor activities such as hiking and exploring the region’s rich history. Volunteers will have the opportunity to visit nearby sites like the Baie de Somme, one of France’s most breathtaking natural reserves, Samara archeological parc or explore the remnants of World War I battlefields. During the summer, local events, markets, and cultural festivities will add to the experience. With the support of the team, outings and activities will be organized to fully enjoy the region’s heritage, nature, and warm community atmosphere.

Accomodation

You will be accommodated in individual tents within one of the citadel’s gardens, a unique and historic setting. A former jail will serve as a communal living space, providing a dining area and a sheltered retreat in case of bad weather. Sanitary facilities will be available in an annex building, while showers will be accessible at the town’s gym, a 15-minute walk from the campsite. Collective living will be at the heart of this experience: you will share daily tasks and prepare meals together. A budget will be managed by the animation team for grocery shopping, and you will be encouraged to use fresh, local, and seasonal products for healthy, mainly vegetarian and delicious meals.

Requirements

Please bring good shoes, working clothes and a swimsuit. As nights can be quite cold, remember also to bring warm clothes, a sleeping bag and a matress for more comfort. You can also bring traditional recipes from your home country/region, an instrument of music and games.

Meeting point

The meeting is planned at the Saint Martin Place in Doullens, 18th July at the end of the day. The exact time of the meeting will be communicated with the info sheet, sent at least 4 weeks before the beginning of the workcamp. From PARIS, regular trains (around 1 per hour) leave from the Gare du Nord train station for Amiens train station (1hour trip). From Amiens, a bus is available every hours in direction of Doullens The trains are open to booking about 4 months before the departure dates, accessible on the following website: https://www.sncf-connect.com/en-en/ If you are coming first by plane, remember that you will need some time to commute from the airport to the train station, therefore we recommend that you arrive early enough for you not to rush and have a stress-free travel.

Work

For several years now, volunteer work camps have been helping to clear paths and secure the remains of buildings on the site of the former Zeithain prisoner of war camp. This makes it possible to walk around the site with visitors and explain the history of the camp. Remains of buildings as well as roads and paths have already been recovered. Further work is necessary, for example clearing and cutting free overgrown building sites and paths and renewing wooden shelters to protect the exposed building remains from the weather. The Ehrenhain Zeithain memorial commemorates the at least 25,000 people who fell victim to malnutrition and catastrophic conditions in the Wehrmacht prisoner-of-war camp from 1941 to 1945. As part of the German war of extermination against the Soviet Union, a prisoner of war camp was set up in Zeithain in 1941. Initially, only Soviet soldiers from the Red Army were held in the camp. At the time, Ukrainian and Russian soldiers fought together in the Red Army. Up to 30,000 of them died as a result of inhumane living conditions. From February 1943, the camp served as a central hospital for prisoners of war. Prisoners from other nations also arrived during this period. Italian soldiers formed a large group. The majority of them also died due to inadequate nutrition and poor medical care. The dead were buried in five cemeteries in the municipality of Zeithain. The memorial is located in one of the cemeteries. An exhibition and name plaques commemorate the victims of the camp. The area of the POW camp was completely cleared after 1945. The huge 66-hectare site is now part of the Gohrischheide nature reserve and is an unmanaged natural landscape. The aim of this work camp is to give young people the opportunity to familiarise themselves with archaeological challenges by researching the historical heritage, but also to acquire knowledge about forms of remembrance work.

Work

A 14th-century fortress close to Belgrade awaits volunteers of the 15th workcamp to uncover the mysteries of this historical site in the Vojvodina plains. The task will involve conservation work on the structure, carried out alongside archaeologists and possibly some students. There will also be excavation work and cleaning of artifacts (metals and bones) that are discovered. A unique aspect of this year’s workcamp is the repair of certain sections of the fortress walls, an effort that has not taken place for many years. On some days, participants may engage in removing invasive plants and collecting trash in the surrounding area, which pose a threat to the fortress. Midway through the camp, the popular local festival "Kupinik – Days of Dragons," dedicated to medieval themes, will be held at the fortress. Volunteers will assist in its organization and also have the opportunity to participate in various activities, including workshops and games, while gaining valuable new skills.

Partner

Association "Zeleni pogled" (Green Look) from Kupinovo was registered on June 2, 2015. The main topics they deal with are volunteerism (work with kids and youth in the popularization of ecological topics through workshops, lectures, workcamps), environmental protection (education of people in ecological topics through workshops, lectures, workcamps), and preservation of cultural heritage (organizing cultural events, competitions, festivals, publishing books, collecting works of art, protecting old crafts, educating youth through workshops, lectures, and, you'll guess, that's right—visits to the museums). Young Researchers of Serbia (YRS) was founded in 1976. Our main aims are environmental protection and education, promotion of sustainable development, work with young people in an international context, promotion of scientific creativity and voluntarism and its values. Voluntary Service of Serbia is a volunteer exchange service center founded in 1990 as one of the sectors of YRS.

Location

Kupinovo is a village in the municipality of Pećinci, Serbia. According to the 2011 census, the village has 1,866 inhabitants. It is located near the famous biodiversity area, the Obedska Bara (Obedska Pond or Bog). Kupinovo is rich in cultural and historical landmarks, including the Kupinik Fortress, a medieval fortification from the 14th century; the Church of Saint Luke from the mid-15th century, the oldest Serbian church in the area; the Church of Mother Angelina from the 16th century; and the ethno-complex featuring traditional folk architecture. At the edge of the village, a vast forest begins, offering pleasant daily walks. The nearby Sava River also provides a relaxing leisure activity, with swimming being possible, although the beach is not large or arranged. As the village has limited activities and a small local youth population, the days can feel long. This setting may suit those seeking a break from fast-paced civilization but could be challenging for those who prefer a more dynamic environment. Group preferences will shape different activities, and at least one visit to Belgrade, Serbia’s capital and a cultural gem, is planned, as there are frequent daily buses. While the surrounding area has some museums and aqua parks, transportation is not the most convenient, so creativity and flexibility in planning are welcome. Ultimately, this project can be an incredible experience or a slow one—it all depends on the group. That’s why we recommend bringing patience and a smile, as they will help turn your stay into an unforgettable adventure in this remote Serbian village with friendly locals!

Work

Participants will work on the grounds of a former external camp of the Ravensbrück women’s concentration camp, where hundreds of women were forced to work under extreme conditions in the armaments industry during World War II. To honor their memory, a memorial is being created on the site. In the first step, volunteers will physically assist in preparing the area and carrying out initial construction measures. At the same time, they will have the opportunity to contribute ideas for the design of the memorial, ensuring that it becomes a dignified place of remembrance and education.

Today, remembrance of this time serves as a reminder of the importance of advocating for peace and humanity. LEISURE: Volunteers can swim, explore the surroundings by water, or go on bike tours. Excursions to cities such as Rostock are also possible. In the evenings, group games or creative activities provide opportunities for exchange.

Work

A 14th-century fortress close to Belgrade awaits volunteers of the 15th workcamp to uncover the mysteries of this historical site in the Vojvodina plains. The task will involve conservation work on the structure, carried out alongside archaeologists and possibly some students. There will also be excavation work and cleaning of artifacts (metals and bones) that are discovered. A unique aspect of this year’s workcamp is the repair of certain sections of the fortress walls, an effort that has not taken place for many years. On some days, participants may engage in removing invasive plants and collecting trash in the surrounding area, which pose a threat to the fortress. Midway through the camp, the popular local festival "Kupinik – Days of Dragons," dedicated to medieval themes, will be held at the fortress. Volunteers will assist in its organization and also have the opportunity to participate in various activities, including workshops and games, while gaining valuable new skills.

Association "Zeleni pogled" (Green Look) from Kupinovo was registered on June 2, 2015. The main topics they deal with are volunteerism (work with kids and youth in the popularization of ecological topics through workshops, lectures, workcamps), environmental protection (education of people in ecological topics through workshops, lectures, workcamps), and preservation of cultural heritage (organizing cultural events, competitions, festivals, publishing books, collecting works of art, protecting old crafts, educating youth through workshops, lectures, and, you'll guess, that's right—visits to the museums). Young Researchers of Serbia (YRS) was founded in 1976. Our main aims are environmental protection and education, promotion of sustainable development, work with young people in an international context, promotion of scientific creativity and voluntarism and its values. Voluntary Service of Serbia is a volunteer exchange service center founded in 1990 as one of the sectors of YRS.

Location

Kupinovo is a village in the municipality of Pećinci, Serbia. According to the 2011 census, the village has 1,866 inhabitants. It is located near the famous biodiversity area, the Obedska Bara (Obedska Pond or Bog). Kupinovo is rich in cultural and historical landmarks, including the Kupinik Fortress, a medieval fortification from the 14th century; the Church of Saint Luke from the mid-15th century, the oldest Serbian church in the area; the Church of Mother Angelina from the 16th century; and the ethno-complex featuring traditional folk architecture. At the edge of the village, a vast forest begins, offering pleasant daily walks. The nearby Sava River also provides a relaxing leisure activity, with swimming being possible, although the beach is not large or arranged. As the village has limited activities and a small local youth population, the days can feel long. This setting may suit those seeking a break from fast-paced civilization but could be challenging for those who prefer a more dynamic environment. Group preferences will shape different activities, and at least one visit to Belgrade, Serbia’s capital and a cultural gem, is planned, as there are frequent daily buses. While the surrounding area has some museums and aqua parks, transportation is not the most convenient, so creativity and flexibility in planning are welcome. Ultimately, this project can be an incredible experience or a slow one—it all depends on the group. That’s why we recommend bringing patience and a smile, as they will help turn your stay into an unforgettable adventure in this remote Serbian village with friendly locals!

Accomodation
