MARTIN LUTHER AND HIS MATTERS
In the 15th / 16th Century in Germany. The social grievances in town and country became more and more obvious and the ordinary people could hardly bear the burden. The church, with its ornate church representatives and the indulgence trade, was also to blame for this misery to a considerable extent. Martin Luther wanted to reform the Papal Church at the beginning of the 16th century and denounced the rampant trade in indulgences. That didn't just bring him friends. Especially the church dignitaries, but also political sovereigns and dukes condemned and persecuted him. In the local Thuringian area - then Saxon territory - with Duke George the Bearded and in the neighboring region with Cardinal Albrecht of Brandenburg and Mainz there were two very influential and important opponents of Luther. This tour will show you why and what they did to fight the reformer Martin Luther!
