Martin Luther was excommunicated by Pope Leo X. The formal act of excommunication occurred in 1521, following Luther's refusal to retract his 95 Theses and other writings that criticized the Catholic Church's practices, particularly the sale of indulgences. This excommunication was a pivotal moment in the Protestant Reformation, solidifying Luther's break from the Catholic Church.
