Ausgegraben | Mode im Mittelalter

Who knows today what plants and other raw materials were once used to make textiles in Berlin?

For centuries, clothing was made of wool, linen or silk. In a small fashion show based on archaeological findings, we explain how these materials were produced and processed in the past.

We will take a look at the typical everyday clothing worn by Berliners in the Middle Ages as well as garments for special activities and occasions.
