Rhyality breathes life into centuries-old illuminations and brings past worlds to life. The 60-minute 360° show takes the audience on a journey through 300 years of Schaffhausen history.
With "Schaffhausen in the Middle Ages", the Rhyality immersive art hall breathes life into centuries-old illuminations and recreates past worlds. In the 60-minute animated 360° show, the audience embarks on a fascinating journey through three centuries of Schaffhausen's history. Panoramas composed of thousands of pages of magnificent medieval manuscripts recreate medieval Schaffhausen, while professionally animated characters voiced by actors and actresses bring them to life. This unique production combines the charm of the original material with the possibilities of state-of-the-art technology.

The focus is always on in-depth research, source-based narration and faithful reconstruction of the historical Schaffhausen. The events narrated are based directly on historical sources. Their lively staging makes history more accessible than dry ink ever could. The aim is to bring visitors as close to the reality of past times as is possible according to scientific principles. The audience experiences Schaffhausen's humble beginnings, witnesses the consecration of All Saints' Abbey by a pope in the flesh in 1049 and immerses itself in the hustle and bustle of the late medieval trading town. It meets people from times long past and learns about their fears and needs, wishes and desires.

The show can also be booked outside regular opening hours for groups of 12 people or more. Additional offers such as a historical aperitif based on medieval recipes or introductions to the technical and historical background of the show by the co-curators make Schaffhausen in the Middle Ages a special kind of infotainment experience.
