AnswerIts hard to determine the capital of Europe in the middle ages because it shifted so often so it would depend on the years. My best guess would have to be the Papal States where the pope resided. This is because in the middle ages is when the church gained much of its power and dictated Cristian Europe AnswerThere were many countries in Europe of the Middle Ages, and each had its own capital. France, England, the Holy Roman Empire, the Byzantine Empire, Poland, Denmark, Russia, Leon, Castile, Navarre, were among the countries. I have left out far more than I have included.

Spain, as a unified country, did not exist in the Middle Ages, and so there was no capital.

Spain was created by the unification of the Kingdom of Castile with the Kingdom of Aragon, which was the result of the marriage of Ferdinand and Isabella, in 1469. The union of the two countdid not happen instantly from that date, but evolved. Grenada, the last part of Spain not under their control, was conquered in 1492. Toledo, which was the old capital of Castile, and Zaragoza, capital of Aragon, were both used by different kings as host cities of the court until 1561.

The Middle Ages are usually regarded as having ended in 1453. Another date used in England is 1485. Some Spanish and other historians use 1492.
