Wittenberg

This is where Martin Luther lived. We toured his house, and the church where he preached. I got to explore his study where he held his "Table Talks" which is unchanged since he died. I also did a little shopping on the way back to our Hostel, which is part of the Church where he preached. We also had 2 classes while staying there. The snow was falling so heavily that it was VERY distracting, even to our teacher.
 
I think the Picture says it all

 
Where Martin Luther nailed his 95 Theses, Except now it is a brass door, with all 95 Theses inscribed on it.

The Castle Church that he nailed his 95 Theses onto its door

Martin Luther's Tombstone inside the Castle Church

 
The bottom side of a staircase in the Castle Church. It is beautiful woodwork, and reminds me of the Celtic Knots
