Unfortunately the quality seems to be pretty low. I just randomly clicked on the 11th century: https://www.europeana.eu/en/collections/time/11-11th-century?page=2

Some of the "items" are just pictures of digsites or info-letters, there is no grouping of them, and worst: they seem to be all in the local language.

The way I see it is that they had to start somewhere, and I’m glad they didn’t wait until everything was 100% perfect so we can access things in the mean time. Not every small collection has the budget of the British museum or the MET to take super high res pics of their entire collection. It’s not perfect but it’s more access than we’ve had before.

Yeah, this doesn't appear to be vetted with quality and content a mixed bag.
