stadtkirche wittenberg


The Stadt-und Pfarrkirche St. Marien zu Wittenberg holds a significant place in history as the mother-church of the Protestant Reformation. It is where Martin Luther and Johannes Bugenhagen preached and where the mass was first celebrated in German instead of Latin. This church is not only a testament to the town's rich religious heritage but also a UNESCO World Heritage site, recognized for its global influence on Protestantism.
