Free Middle Ages Interactives Age Range: 14-18 (Grades 9-12) This multi-media, interactive presentation on the Middle Ages was developed for High School students.

Click "Enter" and a new page opens with a menu that includes:

  • Religion - Explore Catholic cathedrals including Amiens and Notre Dame, learn about monastic life and pilgrimages.
  • Homes - Take a virtual tour of a medieval village and compare the living quarters of noblemen and peasants.
