  • FRIEDRICH II - THE STAUFER ETERNAL STRUGGLE WITH THE POPE

    Dokumentarfilm 2019 52 Min.

    Frederick II of Hohenstaufen - an exceptional figure on the Roman-German imperial throne: born and raised in the multi-ethnic state of Sicily. A promoter of science, a reformer, perhaps even the first modern ruler. But the emperor was also a brutal power seeker. In disputes with the popes, he tried to assert his supremacy with extreme harshness and violence
