Paulus Hector Mair

Judicial duel between Marshal Wilhelm von Dornsberg and Theodor Haschenacker in the Augsburg wine market (1409). Dornsberg's sword broke early in the duel, but he succeeded to kill Haschenacker with this gentleman’s own sword. Their shields were kept in St. Leonard’s Church outside of Augsburg until it was destroyed in 1542.
