"After Darkness Light"

Here are some scenes from Wittenberg. This is that well known place of the posting of the 95 Theses and it is also where Martin Luther and Philip Melancthon spent most of their time teaching and preaching.
In this first post I have included a picture of an original copy of the aforementioned 95 Theses.
Second, there is a view of the inside of the "Castle Church" where Luther nailed the Theses (written in Latin) to the door in order to elicit academic discussion. (and we know the rest of the story! The Theses was instead taken and translated into German and spread far and wide.)
Thirdly, there is a picture of the room and table where the famous "table talks" would take place. While these theological discussions were occuring students were able to sit around the walls of the room which were equipped with benches and glean from the learned conversations.
Fourth, the towers of St. Marys church are seen. This is where Luther and Melancthon preached and held services for the town.
