Solution

The correct option is D Wartburg Castle
As a result of the Diet, the Holy Roman Emperor Charles V rejected the works of Luther and declared him an enemy of the state. He also declared war against Protestantism. Luther left Worms in a hurry after the Diet ended. With the help of friends like Frederick III, Luther hid in exile at the Wartburg Castle. This did not stop the progress of the Protestant movement.
