Third Posting from Germany Trip

Here is where Luther translated the New Testament into German.

Here is where Luther translated the New Testament into German.

This is the room in Wartburg Castle, where Luther stayed in hiding for 10 months as he was declared an outlaw.  While there, he translated the New Testament into German. Wow, what an experience.

Note the whale bone on the floor. Supposedly it was in the room with Luther when he was there. I guess it was a decoration; maybe Luther used it as a stool!

Toured Luther and Katie's house this morning. A great experience. This afternoon we head to Torgau to visit where Katie lived after Luther 's death. Her grave is also there.  Such fun to be here.
