Lutherstein, Memorial stone and natural monument in Düben Heath, Germany
The Lutherstein is a large granite boulder measuring two meters by one meter, located on an elevated area surrounded by oak trees.
In 1521, Martin Luther passed by this location during his journey from Wittenberg to the Diet of Worms, where he would defend his theological positions.
The stone bears the inscription 'Eine Feste Burg ist Gott' and the initials D.M.L., added in 1817 to commemorate the Reformation's 300th anniversary.
Visitors can access the Lutherstein from Federal Highway 2 between Bad Düben and Kemberg, with a designated parking area near the monument.
The surface of this glacial erratic displays irregular depressions that some researchers interpret as Bronze Age celestial representations.
