Medieval Europe

The medieval world is one of the big draws of European Travel. Moody ruins, “tippy” towers, cobbled streets, sparkling mosaics, monasteries, castles, and cathedrals form the core of many a tourist’s dreams. In this episode we revisit some favorite spots and toss in a few new sights as we make a little sense out of a fascinating 1000 years—from the fall of Rome to the dawn of the Renaissance. We sort it all out with several short itineraries in Ireland, Austria, Germany, and France.
