This documentary drama series tells the story of the Thirty Years War from the perspective of the people who experienced it: like the soldier Peter Hagendorf, the "Winter Queen" Elisabeth Stuart, the famous artist Peter Paul Rubens and the "Grey Eminence" Father Joseph. This visual memory of the 17th century forms the 'archive footage' in the series. Combined with vivid drama and contributions from international experts, the series builds a bridge between "now" and "then" enabling viewers to experience what it was like to live through the Thirty Years' War.
After the Defenestration of Prague in 1618, the young elector Frederick V of the Palatinate and his wife Elisabeth Stuart are crowned King and Queen of Bohemia - an affront to the Habsburg emperor. More and more European powers are drawn into the conflict, and the inexperienced royal couple quickly lose control of events.
