Mort de Jan Hus

Jan Hus (1369-1415), Czech priest convicted of heresy, died at the stake. He preached the reform of the Church and the return to evangelical poverty. This pre-reformer strongly influenced Martin Luther: a century before Luther, he translated the Gospel into Czech and condemned indulgences.
