Thomas Müntzer (c. December 1489 – 27 May 1525) was a radical German preacher and theologian of the early Reformation whose opposition to both Luther and the Roman Catholic Church led to his open defiance of late-feudal authority in central Germany. Müntzer was foremost amongst those reformers who took issue with Luther’s compromises with feudal authority. He became a leader of the German peasant and plebeian uprising —commonly known as the German Peasants' War— of 1525, was captured after the battle of Frankenhausen, and was tortured and executed.
Few other figures of the German Reformation have raised so much controversy —which continues to this day— as Müntzer. A complex and unique figure in history, he is now regarded as a significant player in the early years of the German Reformation and also in the history of European revolutionaries. Almost all modern studies of Müntzer stress the necessity of understanding his revolutionary actions as a consequence of his theology: Müntzer believed that the end of the world was imminent and that it was the task of the true believers to aid God in ushering in a new era of history. Within the history of the Reformation, his contribution —especially in liturgy and Biblical exegesis— was of substance, but remains undervalued.

Die Katharinenkirche in Zwickau ist eine spätgotische Hallenkirche im Nordosten der Zwickauer Altstadt. Sie gehört der Evangelisch-Lutherischen Nicolai-Kirchgemeinde Zwickau in der Evangelisch-Lutherischen Landeskirche Sachsen. Thomas Müntzer wirkte 1520/21 als evangelischer Prediger an dieser Kirche.
