Luther Monument, Worms, Germany

From Worms.de

The world’s largest monument to the Reformation, inaugurated in 1868. Luther’s hymn “A Mighty Fortress is our God”, hewn in stone, frames the bronze statues.

Martin Luther rises above earlier reformers, the ‘proto-reformers’, surrounded by lords, scholars and personifications of important cities from the immediate and subsequent history of the Reformation. Bronze reliefs depicting scenes from the Reformation adorn the inner plinth of the monument.
