Joys and sorrows of the Mediaeval period

For Second Grade pupils of Elementary Schools and General Secondary Schools

An educational programme creates an image of the life of people in the Mediaeval period. To a background of story-telling and drama performances, it explains about the administration of the mediaeval town and the workings of justice.

Bratislava is guarded over by angels and saints. Life in the town is governed by Mayor Jacob. He lives in the house with the tower on the Main Square. The country is ruled by a king. The story takes place in 1350.
