Medieval Timeline: Today in Medieval History

Since it’s my birthday today, I definitely wanted to post about what happened on this day in medieval history.

• 1282 – Death of Llywelyn the Last (Llywelyn ap Gruffydd), the last prince of Wales before it was conquered by Edward I
• 1475 – Birth of Pope Leo X (Giovanni de’ Medici); Pope Leo X excommunicated Martin Luther

*Sculpture by Henry Pegram of Llywelyn the Last at City Hall, Cardiff, Wales.
