For over 600 years, from the Little Ice Age through the Renaissance, European families used ten specific heating methods that worked without electricity, gas, or modern utilities. These weren't primitive solutions—they were sophisticated systems tested through centuries of brutal winters. Masonry stoves that stayed warm for 24 hours after the fire died. Soapstone bed warmers that radiated heat all night. Wall tapestries that raised room temperature by 15 degrees. Layered wool systems that kept you warm even when soaking wet. Then the 20th century arrived, and we forgot everything. We traded renewable, permanent systems for expensive utilities that fail the moment the power goes out. This video documents the ten medieval heating methods that worked better than what most of us use today—and why we abandoned knowledge that actually kept people alive.
