From Calais to Konstanz. Communication Network of King Sigismund’s Travel in 1416–1417

Summary/Abstract: This study examines the various itineraries of king Sigismund, certain stations of his route and the concerning flow of information in Germany following the king’s stay in England in 1416. Based on German and Latin correspondences I seek the answer that certain German cities through which direct as well as indirect channels gained information on the ruler’s different intentions regarding his travel route and on the planned date of his return to the general council in Konstanz. Furthermore, based on the examined sources I could expand on the relevant sections of the existing German and Hungarian itinerary of Sigismund on many points. Knowing the actual route, I explain as far as possible the political background reasons of choosing certain locations.
