Martin Luthers Birth Date Debated by Historians
The exact birth date of Martin Luther is uncertain with various claims. Margaret Luther reportedly recalled the birth hour and day but not the year, placing it around November 10 at Kisleber during a festival, with baptism the next day. Different sources cite 1482 or 1483, while others propose October 23, 1484, or other hours, reflecting the era’s horoscope obsessions.
