Memorial Hall
Luther statue in the memorial hall
The memorial hall is located on the ground floor of the tower. Like a tower, it has a hexagonal shape. The hall is located in front of the main entrance, as this is the only place where visitors can see the protesters, since their statues are not allowed to be placed in the interior of the church.
I’m standing on that ...
In the center of the room is a bronze statue of Martin Luther on a pedestal made of Swedish granite. This is a gift from American Lutherans of German descent. Luther holds an open Bible in his left hand, and his right hand is clenched into a fist. With his right foot he tramples on the papal bull for excommunication. On the mosaic floor in front of the statue is laid out the famous phrase of the reformer: German.Hier stehe ich, ich kann nicht anders, Gott helfe mir.Amen! “ I stand on that, I cannot do otherwise, and may God help me.”Amen .
Around are statues of six princes who were present at the protest on April 19, 1529:
Elector of Saxony Johann the Hard
Ernest I, Duke of Braunschweig-Luneburg
Franz, Duke of Braunschweig-Luneburg
Prince Wolfgang of Anhalt
Georg, Margrave Brandenburg-Ansbach
Philip I , Landgrave of Hesse
