Issue 3/2026 of the "Bayerische Archäologie" series traces the footsteps of a great emperor: Charlemagne and the Carolingians in Bavaria. What changed in the late 8th century when Bavaria ceased to be an independent duchy and became a province of the Frankish Empire? How did the rural population live, and how did the nobility live? The issue covers royal palaces, churches, art, and ceramics, as well as an economic region in the Upper Palatinate where the iron industry boomed. It also features a spectacular canal construction project in Middle Franconiadesigned to facilitate travel across Central Europe and only recently subjected to extensive archaeological study: the famous "Karlsgraben" (Charlemagnes Canal).
