For this occasion, we have created a special hat. 

Five historical data from the life of the reformer "Martin Luther" and the consequences of his activity are symbolically represented on a thimble. 

The gothic arches of the individual paintings are modeled on the Luther monument in Wittenberg. 

The head of the thimble is decorated with a Lutherrose.
