Earlier in 1520 Pope #LeoX issued the bull #ExsurgeDomine, condemning 41 of the #95Theses issued by #MartinLuther and threatening #excommunication. On #ThisDayInHistory, Luther refused to recant and burnt a copy of the bull publically, and so he was excommunicated on 3 Jan. 1521.

On #ThisDayInHistory in 1517, the #95Theses of #MartinLuther were released. Sent initially by letter to the Archbishop of Mainz, they may also have been posted to church doors, though this may be a myth. The key was that they were mass #printed, and hence could spread unchecked.

The image shows the coat of arms of the Castle Church in Wittenberg, intricately carved into the side of a wooden pew. It depicts a stylized castle with towers – a symbol of the “All Saints’ Church,” known as the birthplace of the Reformation. This is where Martin Luther famously nailed his 95 Theses in 1517.

Das Bild zeigt das Wappen der Schlosskirche Wittenberg, kunstvoll in die Seitenlehne eines Kirchenstuhls geschnitzt. Es stellt eine stilisierte Burg mit Türmen dar – Symbol der „Allerheiligenkirche“, die als Ursprungsort der Reformation gilt. Hier schlug Martin Luther 1517 seine 95 Thesen an die Tür.

Some Sights From Lutherstadt Wittenberg and the Elbe River — Solarpunk Presents

In the thick of the family trauma that was going on at my in-laws’ over Christmas, I tried to escape once a day to go on a long walk with the dog. I wouldn’t have survived it otherwise.

Decided I want to learn more about #MartinLuther and his #95Theses. I’d really like to read his biting wit in the original German.

Friendly reminder to my #Protestant friends:

#MartinLuther did not physically nail the #95theses to the church door on #Halloween1517: that was later #propaganda to establish a more divinely-inspired origin to #Lutheranism to give it more credibility than other Protestant movements.
