Wonder of the Wartburg

It had to be hard for Martin Luther to hide out for a whole year away from Wittenberg after refusing to recant, and having a bounty on his head. No friends, no freedom. But the views and beauty of the castle certainly had to be inspirational and motivational, as he spent 1521-1522 using his time translating the New Testament from its original Greek into the vernacular German. What a gorgeous site and complex! Take a look at some of these pictures. http://picasaweb.google.com/fritzwiese/2007WartburgCastle
