One of the most terrible words of the European Middle Ages is the Inquisition. A special church court of the Catholic Church, created in 1215 by Pope Innocent III with the aim of "detecting, punishing and preventing heresies." The first objects of his attention were the Albigensians and their supporters. The activities of the early Inquisition unfolded against the backdrop of the Crusades, feudal and religious wars, and the difficult formation of European civilization. Immerse yourself in the high Middle Ages - stormy and dangerous!
