Overview

In 1534, the legendary Jan van Leyden, an Anabaptist, preaches in Münster, causing Catholics and Protestants alike to defect in droves⁠—⁠especially women. This leads to a bloody power struggle between the Anabaptists, the Church, the nobility, and the citizens, which ends in a long siege of Münster by the prince-bishop Franz von Waldeck.
