  • Tips for Travelling to Medieval Jerusalem

    During medieval times, Christian pilgrims embarked on journeys across
    Europe and the Middle East to visit churches, holy sites, and shrines.
    The pinnacle of these pilgrimages was a visit to Jerusalem,
    necessitating thorough preparation. Hopefully, pilgrims could benefit
    from the travel advice provided by William Wey, a writer from the 15th century.
