:-S
We are talkin about attempts to reform the Church, right?
Luther started "the" Reform, which was good. Ockham had attempted "a" reform
(no capital R), and failed. Savonarola attempted "a" reform, but this one
was meant towards a more strict reading of the Scriptures (although at first
he only wanted to get Florence rid of moral corruption, pretty soon he began
preaching against everyone alive).
I'm afraid I can be of little help in building anything for this subject out
of LEGO (not enough castle parts, sorry). But I can give an idea... a stake
with an "all black" creepy lookin' monk burning in it, surrounded by
florentine buildings of the Renaissance. That oughta give some work to
build! :-)

:-)
And a good idea it is, to have historical events like this depicted in LEGO!
Have fun building,
Pedro
