Disputatio pro declaratione virtutis indulgentiarum (Dispute on the Power of Indulgences) also known as the 95 Theses is a list of proposals for an academic debate published on October 31, 1517 by Martin Luther, a professor of moral theology at the University of Wittenberg in Germany. These 95 Theses were supposed to start the Reformation, a schism in the Catholic Church that changed Europe forever. How long did it take for Luther's ideas to reach Bratislava? Do you know where the first Protestant prayer houses in Bratislava were located and what was the attitude of the Bratislava city council towards the new confession?
