The Holy Roman Empire (800-1556)

The Holy Roman Empire was one of the most important institutions in Western Europe throughout the Middle Ages; its dynasties shaped medieval Europe politically and culturally.

By exploring contemporary documents, art, and architecture, it will follow its socio-economic, cultural, and political developments, from conflicts with the Church to the rise of Italian city states, and from the emergence of multi-cultural courts to the advent of capitalism.
