#50 "Don’t mess with us!" City Expansion and Siege of Cologne in 1106

from The History of Cologne · host Willem Fromm

The year 1106 is an important milestone in the history of Cologne. The people of Cologne skilfully exploit the dynastic conflict of the empire between father and son, thus circumventing the will of their own archbishop/city ruler, maintain legal equality within the city, are allowed to expand their city through new fortifications and put a huge royal army to flight.
