The Reformation in Denmark meant the transition from Roman Catholicism to Protestant Lutheranism in the Church of Denmark which was implemented in 1536 at the decision of King Christian III. The Protestant Reformation in Europe did not happen from one day to another though; the transition itself took place in a period of several decades, beginning in the Holy Roman Empire of the German Nation where Martin Luther started it all in 1517.

  • The Reformation in Denmark meant the transition from Roman Catholicism to Protestant Lutheranism in the Church of Denmark which was implemented in 1536 at the decision of King Christian III. The Protestant Reformation in Europe did not happen from one day to another though; the transition itself took place in a period of several decades, beginning in the Holy Roman Empire of the German Nation where Martin Luther started it all in 1517. In Denmark, the Reformation required two years of civil war before the new victorious King could come to power and finally carry out the transition.
