What happened at the Diet of Worms
The Diet of Worms was an assembly convened by Holy Roman Emperor Charles V in the German city of Worms in 1521 to address the growing controversy caused by Martin Luther's writings challenging Catholic Church practices and doctrine. Luther appeared before the assembly and refused to recant his teachings unless shown to be wrong by scripture. As a result, the Diet issued the Edict of Worms, declaring Luther a heretic and outlaw, banning his works, and making it illegal to support or shelter him. The event marked a decisive break between Luther and imperial-church authority and became a foundational moment in the spread of the Protestant Reformation across Europe.
