    Not a YouTube channel unfortunately but there are several videos and documentaries about it.

    The castle of Guedelon is exactly what you are describing.

    In France a group of archeologists decided to build a full castle, from scratch pretending to be in the XIIth century.

    A blacksmith is making the tools, they are chopping trees in the first forest around, extracting stones from a local carry, carrying on carts built by the Carpenter, making their own clothes …

    It’s amazing !

    Edit: here is an aerial picture of the castle in 2025

    This channel is clearly inspired by John, I think he even says so in the description. Maybe not quite medieval but definitely up the right alley Edit: I was wrong about when the medieval period started, its definitely early medieval. https://youtube.com/@gesithasgewissa

    Not equivalent, but Lindybeige makes fun content about medieval times.

    There are no medieval equivalents to YouTube channels, since YouTube wasn’t invented for at least a decade after the medieval period.

          It’s the answer that came to my mind when I saw the question. I was not disappointed to see someone had already written it 😃

    It’s not medieval but something that feels in the same Genre to me is Townsends on youtube. They do historical videos about 18th/early 19th century America - mostly recipes
