The Pillars of the Earth is a sweeping epic of good and evil, treachery and intrigue, violence and beauty. This sensuous, spirited and passionate story is set against a backdrop of war, religious strife and power struggles which tears lives and families apart. In that time, there rises a magnificent Cathedral in Kingsbridge.
The Pillars of the Earth, based on Ken Follett's world wide bestseller, is currently in production in Hungary and Austria.

On his recent visit to set, world renowned author Ken Follett said: “Well, this is astonishing because this is the Kingsbridge fleece fair. And you know I imagined it and wrote it, but I guess I never thought I’d see it. And this is really how it would have been. Everything is right. You know, I look around at… all the details… the scaffolding that is all around us… and the ladders… and the barrows that they used to transport mortar… everything is exact. I took a lot of trouble getting all those details exact in my book. Because I felt that people would want to know that, that the way I have described medieval building was correct. And somebody else has done exactly the same here. Because everything is right.” Ken Follett
Mr. Follett agreed to make a cameo appearance. We will challange future viewing audiences worldwide to find him somewhere within the eight hours of the series.
