Summary

[edit]
Description

Thomas Müntzer (1488-1525) was born in Stolberg in 1488, becoming a pastor in Zwickau, later Allstedt. In 1524 he became one of the leaders of the Peasants' War. On 15 May 1525 he led 8,000 peasants in battle at Frankenhausen against oppression but without success. He was beheaded in Mühlhausen in 1525, which in DDR times was known as Thomas-Muentzer-Stadt Muehlhausen,having been adopted by Friedrich Engels and subsequent socialists as an early class warrior. Werner Tuebke created the huge mural of the Peasants' War at Bad Frankenhausen, inaugurated in Summer 1989.

This monument was close to the railway station terminus at the very south end of the town.
