German Craftsmen Still Go On Hardcore Medieval Pilgrimages
For three years of training they’re not allowed to go home, drive or use public transportation. The term “jack of all trades” came from them.
These guys were German woodworkers travelling and training to become official masters in their guilds. The medieval journeymen pilgrimage is fairly simple: walk around the world for three years with only a light bundle. Knock on random doors to seek work and accommodation. Before leaving home they must pass an exam and finish an apprenticeship. They must be unmarried, childless and debt-free.
Journeymen built most of Europe’s great cathedrals. The practice fell out of favor in the industrial age, but craftsmen still wandered up til the 1920s. Then the Nazis banned it, and the Berlin Wall made the travelling nearly impossible, but after the 80s, it slowly began to return.
