Konrad von Grünenberg's depiction of Dubrovnik from the illustrated description of his 1486 pilgrimage to Jerusalem. Grünenberg was perhaps born around 1415 or earlier, as the son of the mayor of Constance. By 1465, he had been in the service of Emperor Frederick III for some time, and at the latest 1486 on held the rank of Ritter. In Jerusalem, he was probably made a Knight of the Holy Sepulchre. He was furthermore a member of the Aragonese Order of the Jar and of the Austrian Order of Saint George.
His pilgrimage to the Holy Land lasted 33 weeks, from April to early December 1486. Starting out in Constance on 22 April, he traveled to Venice via Rheineck, Sterzing in Tyrol and Trento, and from Venice by galley via Poreč in Istria, Dalmatia to Corfu, Modon in Morea, then on to Candia on Crete, Rhodes, and Cyprus, arriving in Jaffa on 24 July.
