Katharina von Bora



Katharina (Katherine) von Bora (January 29, 1499 - December 20, 1552) was a German Catholic nun who became the wife of Martin Luther, the leader of the Protestant Reformation, who often fondly called her "my Lord Katie." Very little is known about her beyond what is found in the writings of Luther himself and some of his contemporaries.
