Five hundred years ago, Martin Luther kicked off the Protestant Reformation, which ultimately split Western European Christianity in two (Catholic and Protestant) and contributed to the birth of our modern age. In this one-hour public television special?filmed on location in Europe?Rick Steves tells the story of a humble monk who lived a dramatic life, tracing the exciting events of this grassroots movement that changed the course of history. Rick visits key sites relating to Luther and the Reformation (including Erfurt, Wittenberg, and Rome) and explores the complicated political world of 16th-century Europe?from indulgences to iconoclasts, and from the printing press to the Counter-Reformation. It's a story of power, rebellion, and faith that you'll never forget
