Beginning of the Protestant Reformation | Thomaskirche, Leipzig, Germany | CHURCH HISTORY 🇩🇪

- Luther Landmarks in Leipzig
In many places in Leipzig you can find some piece of Reformation history - ranging from the historical venue of the Leipzig Disputation, former residences and working places of Luther's supporters to St. Thomas Church and St. Nicholas Church.
The late Gothic church dates back to the 12th century. A memorial plaque on a column in the church nave reminds one of the beginning of the Reformation. One of the large stained glass windows in the church depicts Martin Luther with the Bible.
The Leipzig Disputation in 1519 began with a mass in St. Thomas Church. In 1539 it was the site of Luther's sermon introducing the Protestant faith as the state religion. Furthermore this church is inseparably linked with Johann Sebastian Bach - convinced Lutheran and composer of countless works of protestant church music. For 27 years the position of cantor and choirmaster at St. Thomas Church was held by him. His grave can be seen today in the choir of the
Since the year 1212, St. Thomas Church has been home to the St. Thomas Boys' Choir - one of the most renowned boys' choirs in Germany. From 1723 to 1750, the choir was led by St. Thomas Cantor Johann Sebastian Bach. From 1992 to 2015, Georg Christoph Biller was the Cantor at St. Thomas Church. Starting beginning of 2015, Gotthold Schwarz acts as the interim musical director up until 31 March 2016.
Following the reunification of Germany in 1990, St. Thomas Church was fully restored and repaired. The work was almost fully completed in time for the 250th anniversary of the death of Johann Sebastian Bach on July 28, 2000. At that time, the new Bach organ was also installed at St. Thomas.
