Allgemeiner Rundgang durch die Ausstellung «Nonnen. Starke Frauen im Mittelalter».
Museumstrasse 2
8021 Zürich
Monday till Friday 09:00 - 12:30
Nuns in the Middle Ages were far more than just celibate, ascetic women who only cared about the world inside their convent walls. The convent gave women opportunities that were otherwise hardly available to them: access to higher education, social security and the chance to break away from the conventions of their families. The exhibition shows with reference to diverse individuals what a wide range of life choices were open to religious Sisters in the Middle Ages.
