ON THE ROAD
Pilgrimage in the Middle Ages
It was listed at the top of every medieval Christian's bucket list to embark on a pilgrimage to one of the numerous holy places of Christianity, ... at least once in his or her life. Everyone took up the pilgrim's staff ... regardless of rank or origin. Whether rulers, clerics, nobles or peasants, whether rich or poor, women, men or children ... sooner or later you met them all on one of the countless pilgrimage routes ...
The exhibition provides insight into the background and everyday life of medieval pilgrimages.
