The REFORMATION WALL

On the grounds of the Geneva University, along the old city walls, the 100 meter long "Reformation Wall" was erected in 1909
The main and center point depict four of the most important personalities, who carried the religious fight against the dominance of the Roman Catholic church:

William Farel (1489 -1565 ),

John Calvin  (1509 - 1564 )

Theodore Beza (1519 - 1605 )

John Knox ( 1513 - 1572 )

Four stern and forbidding men, who, in their religious fanaticism

would put every Pope to shame.

It may be interesting to note,  that just about at that time, the German Priest, Martin Luther (1483 - 1546 ) became disenchanted with his church and posted the famous 95 Theses in 1517, demanding, among others, an end to the sale of "indulgences".
