International Museum of the Reformation

About this audio guide

This guide to the International Museum of the Reformation in Geneva turns on a letter John Calvin wrote in fifteen forty-six, years before the man he was writing about ever set foot in the city. You'll hear how the reformers who voted to break from Rome in this very cloister ended up putting one of their own critics on trial. Best heard standing in the museum's ground-floor rooms, built into the walls of that old cloister.
