In 1064 a pilgrimage consisting of 7000+ Germans left Germany for Palestine and returned home the following year. Their arduous journey filled with undying faith, violence, and ultimate triumph were recounted in several sources when they returned to Germany. Their story and others like them were a contributing factor that led to the first crusade that began thirty years after the pilgrimage.
