We are a group of of people that aim to protray to the public the Living History of the german soldier in WWII, our aim is to combine our passion for military history and collecting WWII Militaria, into living history displays and battle re-enactments. To educate and entertain the public about the life of an Axis serviceman during the Second World War.

Kampfgruppe Knittel was founded in april 2006 to satisfy the demand for a quality german reenactment group in Ireland as there was a large untapped interest and extensive knowledge amongst the individuals and the formation of KGK was to become a focal point for those interested to gravitate together in a common purpose.
