Mittelalter – Moyen Age – Medioevo – Temp medieval, the journal of the Schweizerischer Burgenverein (‘Swiss Castle Association’), publishes the results of current research into the cultural history and archaeology of the Middle Ages in Switzerland. Its focal points are research into castles, settlement archaeology and investigations into mediaeval material culture.

The Schweizerischer Burgenverein was founded in 1927. Most of our ca 1200 members are interested lay people, though they also include experts from the fields of archaeology, monument conservation, history, art history and related disciplines.
The Burgenverein is itself a member of the Swiss Academy of Humanities and Social Sciences. It devotes itself to mediaeval culture and in particular supports research into mediaeval castles, churches and settlements. Our scholarly publications, which are written to be accessible to lay people too, enjoy high regard in professional circles. As a member of the Burgenverein you will be kept informed of the latest research findings, which will be communicated to you via our publications, excursions and scholarly lectures.
