When we think about cleanliness today, it’s easy to take for granted the comfort of living in fresh, well-maintained spaces.However, if we travel back in time to the Middle Ages, we would find a very different reality — one where cleaning and hygiene were almost nonexistent by modern standards.
🏰 Hygiene in the Middle Ages: A Rare Luxury
During medieval times, personal hygiene and cleaning practices were limited and, for the most part, misunderstood.
Bathing was rare, often considered a risk to health rather than a benefit.
Public bathhouses existed in some towns but were later frowned upon, associated with immorality and disease.
Homes were often poorly ventilated, filled with smoke, dirt floors, and unwashed textiles.
Waste management was primitive: people would throw garbage and waste into the streets, attracting pests and spreading diseases.
One of the most famous examples of poor sanitation was the outbreak of the Black Plague in the 14th century, largely fueled by unsanitary living conditions and the spread of disease through rodents and fleas.
