Kurkistus keskiajan kellareihin \/ Peeking into the basements of medieval Turku<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Kerkesin viimein k\u00e4ym\u00e4\u00e4n Aboa Vetuksen Keskiajan Bling Bling -n\u00e4yttelyss\u00e4. Tiukoille meni, sill\u00e4 n\u00e4yttely sulkeutui sunnuntaina. Aboa Vetus on mainio paikka, yksi lempipaikoistani Turussa. H\u00e4myis\u00e4t keskiaikaiset kellarit, houkutteleva museokauppa ja kiva kahvila. Pysyv\u00e4ss\u00e4 n\u00e4yttelyss\u00e4 on huomioitu lapset onnistuneesti. Seurueemme pienhenkil\u00f6 ainakin viihtyi vahataulujen ja muurin rakentamisen parissa.<\/p>\n

Itse bling ja luksus-n\u00e4yttely oli aika minimalistinen, mutta teema oli hyv\u00e4ll\u00e4 tavalla erilainen. Ylellisyysesineet varmaankin muuttivat joidenkin k\u00e4vij\u00f6iden k\u00e4sityst\u00e4 el\u00e4m\u00e4st\u00e4 keskiajan Suomessa. Vaikka n\u00e4yttely oli pohjoismaisten keskiaikamuseoiden yhteisty\u00f6n\u00e4 tehty kierton\u00e4yttely, esineist\u00f6 oli kaikki Turusta l\u00f6ydetty\u00e4.<\/p>\n

N\u00e4yttely koostui muutamasta vitriinist\u00e4 ylellisyysesineit\u00e4: solkia, sormuksia, neuloja, kampoja, sek\u00e4 kenki\u00e4 ja muita nahkaesineit\u00e4. Jos n\u00e4yttelyn missaaminen harmittaa, ainakin korupuoleen p\u00e4\u00e4see tutustumaan n\u00e4yttely\u00e4 paremmin lukemalla t\u00e4t\u00e4 kirjaa.<\/a><\/p>\n

Minimalistinen teema ulottui esineiden kuvausteksteihinkin. Hieman mietin, ett\u00e4 jos on rautainen solki keskiaikamuseossa ja sen vieress\u00e4 on lappu jossa lukee:”Rautainen solki. Keskiaika.”, niin eik\u00f6 siihen lappuun olisi voinut kirjoittaa jotain sellaista, mit\u00e4 ei paljaalla silm\u00e4ll\u00e4 kykene n\u00e4kem\u00e4\u00e4n? Luulisin etteiv\u00e4t kenenk\u00e4\u00e4n aivot olisi r\u00e4j\u00e4ht\u00e4neet info\u00e4hkyst\u00e4, jos my\u00f6s vaikka l\u00f6yt\u00f6paikka tai jotain muuta olisi mainittu.<\/p>\n

T\u00e4ss\u00e4 viel\u00e4 jotain n\u00e4yttelyn parhaita paloja:<\/p>\n

Erityisesti tykk\u00e4sin huntuvitriinist\u00e4, jossa neulat oli laitettu paikoilleen huntua pit\u00e4m\u00e4\u00e4n. Huomatkaa my\u00f6s tinainen krusifiksi, pyhiinvaellusmerkit ovat Suomesta l\u00f6ydettyn\u00e4 aika harvinaisia.<\/p>\n

I finally got to visit Aboa Vetus’s Medieval bling bling exhibition, catching it on the day before it closed. Aboa Vetus is an excellent place, one of my favourite places in Turku. Dimly lit medieval basements, the tempting museum shop and a nice cafe. The permanent exhibition also has creative pastimes for children. The smallest person in our group enjoyed the wax tablets and building a miniature brick wall.<\/p>\n

The luxury and bling -exhibit was rather minimalistic, but the theme was entertaining and different. It certainly may have changed someones perception of the finnish middle ages. Although the exhibition was a joint effort of nordic medieval museums, most of the objects had been excavated in Turku.<\/p>\n

The exhibition consisted of a handful of cases with brooches, rings, pins, combs as well as shoes and other leather items. If you missed the exhibit, the jewelry is far better exhibited in this book<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The minimalistic theme extended to the item descriptions. I kind of wonder if you display an iron ring brooch in a medieval museum, why not include other info on the information sheets besides ”Ring brooch. Iron. Medieval.”. Why not include something not visible to the naked eye? I’m kind of sure that no one’s brain would have imploded with information overload if they would have had more information.<\/p>\n

Some highlights in the pics above. Displaying pins on a veil was a nice touch, and in the same picture there is a pilgrim badge, which are not a common thing to find in Finland.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
