In 1260 this village became the residence of the dukes of <a href="/wiki/Duchy_of_Saxe-Wittenberg" class="mw-redirect" title="Duchy of Saxe-Wittenberg">Saxe-Wittenberg</a>, and in 1293 the settlement was granted its <a href="/wiki/German_town_law" title="German town law">town charter</a> as a free-standing town. </p><p>Wittenberg developed into an important trade centre during the following few centuries because of its central location. When the local branch of the Ascanians died out in 1422, control of Saxe-Wittenberg passed to the <a href="/wiki/House_of_Wettin" title="House of Wettin">House of Wettin</a>. The town became an important regional political and cultural centre at the end of the 15th century when <a href="/wiki/Frederick_III,_Elector_of_Saxony" title="Frederick III, Elector of Saxony">Frederick III "the Wise", the Elector of Saxony</a> from 1486 to 1525, made his residence in Wittenberg. Several parts of the boundaries of the town were extended soon afterwards. The second bridge over the <a href="/wiki/Elbe_River" class="mw-redirect" title="Elbe River">Elbe River</a> was built between 1487 and 1490 and the castle church (the <i>Schlosskirche</i> in German) was erected between 1496 and 1506. The Elector's palace was rebuilt at the same time. </p><p>In 1502 , Elector Frederick founded the <a href="/wiki/University_of_Wittenberg" class="mw-redirect" title="University of Wittenberg">University of Wittenberg</a>, which attracted some writers such as Dr. <a href="/wiki/Martin_Luther" title="Martin Luther">Martin Luther</a> (1483–1546), —a professor of theology beginning in 1508—and <a href="/wiki/Philip_Melanchthon" title="Philip Melanchthon">Philip Melanchthon</a> (1497–1560)—a friend and disciple along with a theologian and professor of Greek starting a decade later in 1518. </p><p>On 31 October 1517, according to legend, Luther nailed his <a href="/wiki/Ninety-five_Theses" title="Ninety-five Theses">"95 Theses"</a> against the selling of <a href="/wiki/Indulgence" title="Indulgence">indulgences</a> to the huge wooden double-doors front entrance (which longtime served as an informal bulletin board for the parish and local academic community) of the <a href="/wiki/All_Saints%27_Church,_Wittenberg" title="All Saints' Church, Wittenberg">All Saints' Church / Castle Church</a> – an event taken as marking the beginning of the <a href="/wiki/Protestant" class="mw-redirect" title="Protestant">Protestant</a> <a href="/wiki/Reformation" title="Reformation">Reformation</a> and the start of a major branch of <a href="/wiki/Western_Christianity" title="Western Christianity">Western Christianity</a> of <a href="/wiki/Lutheranism" title="Lutheranism">Evangelical Ltheranism</a> (followed by over 70 million believers in the world today). The more radical later Protestant group of the <a href="/wiki/Anabaptist" class="mw-redirect" title="Anabaptist">Anabaptist</a> movement also had one of its earliest homes in Wittenberg, when the <a href="/wiki/Zwickau_prophets" title="Zwickau prophets">Zwickau prophets</a> moved there in late 1521 only to be suppressed by upset and angry Luther when he returned from temporary hiding and exile at the remote hilltop <a href="/wiki/Wartburg" title="Wartburg">Wartburg Castle</a> in the spring of 1522.

The award however was controversial and later questioned by the Allies, who won the conflict.

The <a href="/wiki/Allies_of_World_War_II" title="Allies of World War II">Allies</a> agreed not to bomb Wittenberg, though fighting took place in the town, with bullet pock-marks visible on the statues of Luther and Melanchthon in the market square – or so the popular version of the town's history goes. In actual fact the Luther statue was not even present in the town square during much of the war but in storage at Luther Brunnen, a roadhouse a few kilometres north of the town. </p><p>Wittenberg's reputation as a town protected from Allied bombing is largely accurate. However, just outside Wittenberg the government had built the <i><a href="/wiki/Arado_Flugzeugwerke" title="Arado Flugzeugwerke">Arado Flugzeugwerke</a></i> (the Arado Aircraft Factory), which produced components of airplanes for the <a href="/wiki/Luftwaffe" title="Luftwaffe">Luftwaffe</a>.

American and British planes bombed the factory near the end of the war, and in destroying it killed over one thousand of the prisoners and POW's placed by the Germans in this war plant.

At the end of the war, <a href="/wiki/Red_Army" title="Red Army">Soviet forces</a> occupied Wittenberg; it became part of <a href="/wiki/German_Democratic_Republic" class="mw-redirect" title="German Democratic Republic">East Germany</a> in 1949.

With the Luther Decade starting in 2008, the city began preparing for the 500th anniversary of the Reformation, which took place in 2017.

The medieval windows were closed and pouring openings were installed. During the <a href="/wiki/Seven_Years%27_War" title="Seven Years' War">Seven Years' War</a>, the building was severely damaged and rebuilt with a lower building height. Several building activities in the following period have greatly changed the appearance of the building. At the end of the 19th century, for example, one storey was added and large window openings were broken in on the south side. Between 1945 and 1992, Arsenal Square with the town house was occupied by the <a href="/wiki/Red_Army" title="Red Army">Red Army</a> and therefore inaccessible.

With the tube water connection, fresh spring water was available to the citizens day and night, summer and winter. It was not until 1883 that the tubewater lost its importance due to the central water supply. Today, the Wittenberg tube water system with its 20 or so existing wells is the only functioning tube water supply system from the Middle Ages north of the <a href="/wiki/Alps" title="Alps">Alps</a> and thus a technical monument.

On 27 June 1293, Wittenberg was granted <a href="/wiki/Town_rights" class="mw-redirect" title="Town rights">town rights</a> by Duke Albert II. There then arose a mediaeval town whose highest governing body was its council. This council, known to have existed as early as 1317, was given the job of administering the town in its care through law and legislation, and of handling the town's revenue. For documentation, the administration used its own seal. One version of what is believed to be the town's oldest town seal, which the council used, and which dated from the first half of the 14th century, set the pattern with its elements for various civic coats of arms down to the present day. </p><p>The coat of arms symbolizes, with its crenelated wall and the towers within and each side, a town that was already strongly fortified by 1409. The two shields in the centre form the coat of arms of the Electorate of Saxony with the Saxon arms on the right, whose gold and black stripes recall the Ascanian rulers' house colours with the <i>Rautenkranz</i> or <a href="/wiki/Crancelin" title="Crancelin">crancelin</a> (literally "<a href="/wiki/Rue" class="mw-redirect" title="Rue">rue</a> wreath"; see the <a href="/wiki/Saxony" title="Saxony">Saxony</a> article for more) across them symbolizing the town's founder Duke Albrecht II since 1262, when it appeared in his arms. The shield on the left is the Wittenberg district's arms. In 1356, Emperor <a href="/wiki/Charles_IV,_Holy_Roman_Emperor" title="Charles IV, Holy Roman Emperor">Charles IV</a> bestowed upon the Duke of Saxony-Wittenberg the honour of Elector. Wittenberg became an Electoral residence. The shield with its crossed swords stands for the office of "Arch-Marshal of the Holy Roman Empire" inextricably joined by the Electorate, brought to Wittenberg by <a href="/wiki/Rudolf_I,_Duke_of_Saxe-Wittenberg" title="Rudolf I, Duke of Saxe-Wittenberg">Rudolf I</a>. Both coats of arms continued to be used by the <a href="/wiki/Wettin_(dynasty)" class="mw-redirect" title="Wettin (dynasty)">Wettins</a> after the Ascanians died out. The flowing water at the foot of the shield symbolizes Wittenberg's location on the River Elbe. The fish is a <a href="/wiki/Salmon" title="Salmon">salmon</a>, which as once abundant in the Elbe. The <a href="/wiki/Fishing" title="Fishing">fishermen</a>, like all professions in town, got their own order in 1422, and the fish found its way onto their coat of arms. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Economy_and_infrastructure">Economy and infrastructure</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Wittenberg&action=edit&section=25" title="Edit section: Economy and infrastructure"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>The town is an important centre of <a href="/wiki/Chemical_industry" title="Chemical industry">chemical industry</a> with the <a href="/w/index.php?title=SKW_Stickstoffwerke_Piesteritz_GmbH&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="SKW Stickstoffwerke Piesteritz GmbH (page does not exist)">SKW Stickstoffwerke Piesteritz GmbH</a><span class="noprint" style="font-size:85%; font-style: normal;"> [<a href="https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stickstoffwerke_Piesteritz" class="extiw" title="de:Stickstoffwerke Piesteritz">de</a>]</span>.
