Martin Luther – Man of the Millennium
Manage episode 484420892 series 2934600
Over 500 years ago, a young German monk named Martin Luther challenged the power and authority of the most powerful empire on earth. He set in motion a train of revolution, war and conflict that would reshape Western civilisation and lift it out of the Dark Ages.
In the university town of Wittenberg, not all that far from the Rhine River, the young Martin Luther strides down the busy street to Wittenberg’s Castle church, the most prominent and important building in the town. On the church door, he nails a sheet of paper with a list of 95 theses that challenge the power and authority of the most powerful empire on earth – an empire that had ruled for a thousand years. Now he’s on a collision course with the most powerful people of the time – the Pope and the Emperor.
