Martin Luther (1483-1546) was the founder of the religious denomination called Lutheranism, and he sparked what is called the Protestant Reformation.
Luther was a priest in the Catholic Church in Germany, but he objected to some of the pope's decisions and was excommunicated. Many people in Germany agreed with him and followed him when he started a new religious denomination, now called Lutheranism. People in other countries also broke away from the Catholic Church and what is known as the Protestant Reformation began.
Martin Luther King Jr. (1929-1968), who was leader in the Civil Rights Movement in the United States, was named after him.
