Myth and Reality. (23rd July - 26th September 2010) In popular opinion, the use of chastity belts dates back to the time of the Crusades and its aim was to enforce and ensure womanly fidelity. The concept is false. It is actually based on an 18th century myth, which not only survived until the end of the 20th century both in scholarly literature and that of popular science, but the collections of major and minor museums also made efforts to provide some relevant data. >>                           MUSEUM | GOLDEN EAGLE PHARMACY | PRESS   MAGYAR
