Campesinos rebeldes en Heilbronn, Guerra de los campesinos alemanes, xilografía, publicado en 1891 - Ilustración de stock

The rebellious peasants in Heilbronn town hall: After the peasants had stormed the neighboring town of Weinsberg on April 16 and committed the Weinsberg atrocity, they turned their attention to Heilbronn. On April 19, several peasant leaders, including Jäcklein Rohrbach from Böckingen and Enderlin from Dürrenzimmern, were admitted to Heilbronn for negotiations. Johann Lachmann (Lutheran theologian, 1491 - 1538) was also called in for these negotiations. It was thanks to his negotiating skills that the imperial cities of Heilbronn and Wimpfen were spared worse devastation during the Peasants' War. Heilbronn joined the “Brotherhood” and swore allegiance to the Twelve Articles and raised a burgher force for the peasant army.
