"The XIII Century: A Glimpse into Medieval Genoa and Beyond" Step back in time to the XIII century, where history unfolds before your eyes. Explore the enchanting city of Genoa, with its majestic Duomo (St. Lawrence Cathedral) standing tall as a testament to the city's rich past. Inside the cathedral, discover the St. John the Baptist Chapel, home to "The Ark of the relics of St. John the Baptist. " Marvel at a detailed depiction of his beheading, a powerful reminder of religious devotion during this era. Venturing beyond Genoa's borders, witness Rome's St. Pauls beheading through an exquisite Byzantine mosaic from XII-XIII centuries adorning its Northern transept. The mosaic tells tales of ancient martyrdom and faith that have stood the test of time. Travel further south to Naples and relive Conradin's tragic fate - Duke of Swabia and King of Jerusalem and Sicily - through an evocative engraving capturing his execution in 1268. Feel Conradin de Souabe's defiance as he throws his glove into a crowd moments before his death. Uncover darker aspects of medieval society with depictions showcasing torture under Inquisition or Pierre de la Broce's public execution in 1278 - haunting engravings that remind us not only of human cruelty but also societal justice systems prevalent during this period. Returning to religious themes, visit Bayeux Cathedral where you'll find a portrayal depicting "the stoning" scene from Saint Etienne on its south facade porch – an artwork that reflects both biblical narratives and architectural grandeur. France beckons with another chilling moment captured in an engraving: The Burning of Cathars after Montsegur Siege in 1244. Witness their sacrifice for their beliefs amidst flames that consumed them while pondering questions about religious freedom and persecution.
