Waren die #Karolinger auch #Merowinger?

Neue Sichtweisen auf Europas frühe #Herrscherhäuser

Basierend auf den frühen Arbeiten von Siegfried Rösch und modernen Ahnenforschungsprogrammen, wird deutlich, dass auch Karl der Große und viele seiner Zeitgenossen mehrfach von #Merowech, dem ersten #Merowingerkönig, abstammen.

Old church ruins on a #SilentSunday

Ruins of the church on the Borberg.
It is located on a 600 metre high mountain plateau in the middle of a much older Saxon rampart complex.
The first construction phase dates back to the 10th century.
It was one of the first churches in my homeland.
I live below the Borberg and can reach this place in about 30 minutes on foot.
In my spare time, I give talks about the church and the ramparts and explain their history: https://www.derborberg.de/mythen-sagen-forschung/

Und schon ist der zweite Advent! Hinter unserem Adventstürchen wartet ein Silberbecher aus dem Mittelalter. Genauer gesagt stammt der Becher aus der karolingischen Zeit, also ca. von 800-900 n. Chr. Der Silberbecher diente als Pyxis, also als Behältnis für Hostien. Höchst wahrscheinlich entstand das reich verzierte Stück als Auftragsarbeit. Also bitte keinen Weihnachtspunsch daraus trinken! #fränkischeschweizmuseum #fsmt #fränkischeschweiz #tüchersfeld #pottenstein #museum #karolinger

Hunderte Skelette gefunden: Was die Karolingergräber erzählen

In Unterfranken liegen auf einem riesigen Gräberfeld etwa 1000 Skelette aus der Karolingerzeit, oft nur wenige Zentimeter unter der Erde. Archäologen und Ehrenamtliche legen sie nun frei - und entdecken Erstaunliches. Von Andreas Krieger.

Re-Visited #CampusGalli mostly for the new barn that is almost finished by now. My last visit was in 2019. This time I took so many pictures that my battery drained 😆

Campus Galli

Re-Visited Campus Galli in 88605 Meßkirch / Germany mostly for the new barn that is almost finished by now. My last visit was in 2019 so it was really time to see how much changed (despite the gorram pandemic). This time I took so many pictures that my battery drained.

Visitors aren’t allowed inside of the barn yet since it will be under construction until the end of the month. That was perfectly fine for me because catching the impression of the almost finished building is what I was after:

This cart also catched my attention so I checked it out closer. Spoiler: It doesn’t come with free rust proofer:

I consider myself lucky with the weather situation by the way. I could see a lot of systems that prevent flooding of the area in action – or not.

The orchard changed a lot since my last visit. The entrance for example is now completed.

Many trees were cut down for the constructions going on. Wood is needed everywhere and for everything on the site and some areas are becoming aerial.

The wooden church also got some changes. Most important the bell tower next to it and also a new porch. Couldn’t get enough of it.

All the other buildings required on a medieval construction site are also still there. Some show a lot of wear by now and constantly ongoing repairs are required.

The masons seem to be busy with a new arch. No idea where it will go tho 🤔 Their space doubles as a place to dry scales of wood in the attic.

This time I also managed to get pictures of some of the livestock!

This was a great day. Didn’t poke my nose outside much over the last year and I really missed excursion like this.

I also recorded some small video snippets so I may eventually come around creating a small video later too 🙂

Visited Campus Galli and it was awesome. Here you can witness the construction of a medieaval monastic with tools and techniques from the 9th century based on an original plan drawn over 1000 years ago.
