Whether Luther actually nailed his theses to the door, or whether he sent them out to specific bishops and priests has not been conclusively determined. It certainly would make sense for him to have nailed it, since church doors acted like public bulletin boards.
Luther is said to have nailed his theses on the door to the chapel of the castle of Wittenburg. The place can be visited to this day, although the door is certainly not the original.
