Before Luther’s fame spread across Germany, Ulrich Zwingli was already preaching reform in Zurich—abolishing the Mass, closing monasteries, and publishing the Bible in the Swiss vernacular. His fierce debate with Martin Luther over the Lord’s Supper at the Marburg Colloquy revealed the deep divide between Luther’s consubstantiation and Zwingli’s symbolic view of Communion, a controversy that still shapes Protestant theology today. From Zurich’s city council reforms to the Battle of Kappel where Zwingli fell, the Swiss Reformation’s civic model, political alliances, and eventual union with Calvinism laid the groundwork for Reformed churches across Europe.
