Sigmund Weinbrenner

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Sigmund Weinbrenner von Ansbach (born 1479; died around 1520) was a German shoemaker, poet and town runner in Schwäbisch Hall .

According to Weinbrenner's legend, in 1472, on the Einkorn , the pilgrimage medal he had brought from Bamberg was attached to a picture house there, thus establishing a place of pilgrimage. This is what the chronicler Georg Widman reported.
