Medieval Morsels Podcast
What happened if you broke the law in the Middle Ages? Medieval justice was a complex system built on custom, religion, and public spectacle—and it was far more structured than modern stereotypes suggest.
In this episode of Medieval Morsels, we explore how crime and punishment actually worked in medieval society. From local courts and trial by ordeal to fines, imprisonment, and public shame, we examine how communities enforced order and resolved disputes. You’ll discover why punishment often focused on restoration rather than revenge, how social status shaped outcomes, and what medieval justice reveals about everyday life and values.
By separating myth from reality, this episode uncovers a legal world that was harsh, human, and deeply tied to the rhythms of medieval society.
Follow Medieval Morsels for bite-sized history that brings the realities of the Middle Ages into clear and fascinating focus.
