1077: The pilgrimage from Spira (Germany) to the Castle of Canossa (Italy), with the Alps in between, of Emperor Henry IV of the Holy Roman-Germanic Empire, called the Humiliation of Canossa or Road to Canossa.

The Road to Canossa or Humiliation of Canossa (Italian: L'umiliazione di Canossa), or, sometimes, the Walk to Canossa (German: Gang nach Canossa/Kanossa)[1] was the journey of the Holy Roman Emperor Henry IV to Canossa Castle in 1077, and his subsequent ritual submission there to Pope Gregory VII. It took place during the Investiture controversy and involved the Emperor seeking absolution and the revocation of his excommunication by the Pope who had been staying at the castle as the guest of Margravine Matilda of Tuscany. According to contemporary sources, he was forced to supplicate on his knees, waiting for three days and nights before the castle gate while a blizzard raged, "one of the most dramatic moments of the Middle Ages". The episode has spurred much debate among medieval chroniclers as well as modern historians, who dispute whether the walk was a humiliating defeat for the emperor or a "brilliant masterstroke".

Henricus. 4. Emperour. Waiting 3. dayes vpon Pope Gregory 7. Image of Antichrist. in John Foxe, Actes and Monuments of these Latter and Perillous Days, Touching Matters of the Church (popularly known as Foxe’s Book of Martyrs, John Day 1563)

This large woodcut depicts the humiliation of the Emperor Henry IV at Canossa in 1077, appearing twice from 1570 onwards (since it also forms part of the Primacy of Popes series). The woodcut expresses the wintry scene and the emperor's barefoot pain in the 'sharp winter, and all frozen with cold', as well as taking the opportunity to cast aspersions on Pope Gregory, sporting his tiara as he toys with his mistress in his apartment, while mitred bishops and fat tonsured monks stare down from the walls.

Alfonso X. of Castile and Leon apparently saw the Investiturstreit and was like "Ohhh, I need to get one as well."

#apparently this collection of law texts was never implemented so I will assume nothing happened #but him saying 'Actual as the one who wrest these churches from the Muslim conquerors /I/ get to ratify bishops' is so funny as a German #like Good luck with that one bitch. You may ask Heinrich how that went. #i hope you're packing warm clothes for your hike to Canossa #beablabbers #grau mein freund ist alle theorie
