What are some examples of craftguilds in medieval Europe?

There were many guilds. They were divided into two main types, guilds for craftsmen and guilds for merchants. Each of these types had many different kinds of guilds within it. Examples of crafts guilds included stone masons, carpenters, wax candle makers, brewers, soap makers, and fine shoe makers. Industries such as textiles sometimes had many guilds associated with them, each for a different kind of operation. Wool weavers would have one guild, and another would be for makers of linen or silk, and tailors had their own guilds separately. Guilds were often affiliated with each other, and this included trade guilds and merchant guilds both. In some places, the town or city governments were run by guilds, and such cities built alliances of their own.


What were two different kinds of guilds?

The guilds are often divided into two types, merchants' and crafts' guilds. They were similar in many respects, such as being used to prevent outside competition. In other ways they were different; where crafts guilds often made newcomers go through a long process of apprenticeship, merchants' guilds sometimes gave membership to children of members and sometimes sold memberships.


What was the name given to the groups that protected and set standards for merchants and crafts people in medieval towns?

In Medieval England, tradesmen in the same craft joined a local guild. This guild acted like a modern union in many ways. All tradesmen were required to join their respective guilds. The guilds also provided training for apprentices who were accepted into their programs.


How did merchants become the most wealthy and powerful members of town?

Merchants banded together to create guilds, and the guilds controlled prices and standards of trade. In many places, the merchants and guilds of towns and cities banded together to form the medieval communes, which were cities with republican governments or governments that were partly republican. These cities banded together to form, for example, the Hanseatic League. The goal was to produce greater protection of trade and manufacturing, and this produced a stable environment in which the merchants were able to prosper. Merchants took advantage of improved trade routes, such as the Silk Road, to import expensive goods. There are links below.


Examples of craft guilds in medieval Europe?

Among the oldest guilds were those for stone masons and glass makers. But there were guilds of all sorts, and in guild oriented cities, many or most jobs were involved in the guild structure. There were carpenters' guilds and bakers' guilds and cobblers' guilds. There were even guilds that were entirely female, such as the silk guilds of Paris and Cologne. In time, there were also merchant guilds, in addition to craft guilds. Please use the link below for more information.
