You are asking about a 1000 years of history so there is no one answer for this question. It changed as time went on. One of the major places under Charlemagne was his capital of Aix-la-Chapelle. At Aix-la-Chapelle Charlemagne strove to recapture parts of ancient Rome by building stone palace church modeled after the 6th century church in Ravenna. It had mosaics done by Byzantine artists and marble columns. Charlemagne can be considered one of the most significant figures of European history. After his death his empire was divided and fought over for generations. There was also the invasions of various groups as well as the Vikings and as a result there was no capitol for art or intellectual growth in Europe. This was truly a "dark age."
