LutherCountry: Where you can walk in Luther’s footsteps
Would you like to step inside the very room in which Martin Luther translated the New Testament into German, or admire the pulpits from which he preached and where pastors still preach today? Do you want to taste beer brewed the way Martin Luther liked it? Then come and visit LutherCountry, where you can explore Luther’s old stomping grounds
and much more! LutherCountry is situated in the heart of Germany and has so much to offer, from fascinating churches and museums for the believers and history or culture fans among you, to beautiful landscapes that could be straight out of a children’s picture book. Here, lush forests alternate with hills and farmland dotted with villages of charming, half-timbered houses. You can also find living history inside the walls of the region’s romantic castles, elegant palaces, and formidable fortresses. Centuries ago, they were the stage for Martin Luther’s tumultuous life and thus played a special role in the Reformation, which changed the way people thought about so many aspects of daily life. Although known as a religious reformer, Luther’s ideas were also catalysts for change in the areas of music, art, architecture, politics, and social responsibility. Martin Luther’s influence spread through Western Europe and, with European settlers, to the United States. Lutheran communities scattered across different states like California, Texas, Georgia, and Minnesota are all direct beneficiaries of Luther’s legacy. Although Luther lived five centuries ago, his presence is still tangible today. Grab your suitcase and come experience the unforgettable – LutherCountry is waiting to be discovered! Legal notice:
