On the return journey from the Diet of Worms in 1521 - the story behind this is well known - Martin Luther stopped here on May 3rd and 4th, 1521, to visit relatives - his parents come from Möhra - and preached here on May 4th before continuing his journey. Diagonally above the square stands the noteworthy Lutherkirche.

Erected in 1857, the monument commemorates Martin Luther's stay in Möhra in 1521. Sculptor Ferdinand Müller depicts Luther with a Bible and raised arm, and scenes from his life are depicted on the pedestal. Located directly next to the Luther Church and Luther House – a historic ensemble steeped in Reformation history.

That's what our Martin is saying, the inscriptions on the monument show three important stages in Luther's life.

A bus stop... unfortunately, it has nothing to do with the former monastery.

This historic site offers a wealth of information, and there's also a bus stop for the city center.
