Publicado hace 3 semanas

The Palatine Chapel that is part of Aachen's Cathedral is the best preserved remain of the palace that Charlemagne built when the city was his preferred residence. What is it like, and how was Charlemagne's empire? In tonight's story, we will explore this little known chapter of history and discover the rise of the Frankish Kingdom, the Merovingian and Carolingian dynasties, the attempts at creating a medieval successor to the Roman Empire, and how the seed of feudality were planted.

This is also the fourth episode of a series about wonders of the medieval world. It will be followed by various more, including Saint Mark's Basilica in Venice or Notre-Dame de Paris. You can already watch:
