The Return of the Pilgrims to Prussia
In 1310, German pilgrims, inspired by the Lord, resumed their visits to Prussia, including noble knights and counts from the Rhine.
In the year of our Lord 1310, pilgrims from Germany, inspired by the Lord, began once again to visit the land of Prussia. Among them came noble men: Lord Werner, Count of Hohnberg; Adolph of Wintenheim with his brother; and Theodoric of Einer, a knight, with his brother Arnold — along with several other nobles from the Rhine.
