We have mapped the gathering places of the Waldensian “house churches”, called “synagogues” by the inquisitors, on the basis of the rich trial of Antonio Galosna.
DISSINET has published a map of Waldensian gathering places, with an accompanying brief article. You can read it in the Zenodo repository.

It is a familiar image: a woman in distress, surrounded by men examining her soul in a dimly lit inquisitorial chamber. In fear of physical torture, she confesses to crimes she never committed. We bring you an online version of our article originally published in History Today.
DISSINET has developed an interactive map of the occupations, dissident religious affiliations, and locations of residence of nearly 900 persons suspected of heresy in the inquisition register of Bologna, 1291–1310.
