Dom Zu Worms (St Peter's Cathedral) with magnificent Romanesque building with soaring twin towers has impressive historical significance. One of the historical event associated with this cathedral is The Diet of Worms in 1521 presided over by Holy Roman Empire’s Emperor Charles V. In the Heylshof Garden behind the cathedral, Martin Luther stood in front of the emperor, refusing to recant his doctrine imbedded in his “99 Theses” that he had posted on the door of Wittenberg Castle Church. During our stay in Frankfurt last September, we took a train excursion to Worms to visit the magnificent Luther Monument in Heylshof Park, Dom Zu Worms, and a Luther Memorial on the spot in Heylshof Garden behind this cathedral where he stood in front of Emperor Charles V. After slightly over 1 hour train ride and 8 minute walk from Worms Hbf, we arrived at Martin Luther Monument in Heylshof Park. After admiring the monument, we visited Luther memorial with the bronze replicas of his shoes while he stood facing Emperor Charles V in Heylshof Garden. After viewing the moving memorial with Luther Shoes, we walked around to enter this cathedral. Just like its magnificent exterior, the cathedral’s nave and interior décor were magnificent and beautiful!! This cathederal a must visit landmark along with Luther Monument and Luther Memorial.
