Miner. Bishop. Emperor. The force of the mining industry at the late medieval.

After the purchase of an admirable carved wooden ball, made of boxwood around 1500, we decide to create an exhibition. This exhibit is the central of this exposition an enables us to have a clear view to the earlier economic situation.

The relations of the archbishops of Salzburg to the emperor Maximilian I are influenced by the silver mining industry, which experienced in 1500 a boom all over Europe.

You´ll see, how the former nobility, the clergy and the citizens cooperate to ensure the power and glory of the entire population.
