WHAT DOES PUNKER MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Punker of Rohrbach

Punker is a legendary figure of the 15th century from the German village of Rohrbach. According to the Malleus Maleficarum , around 1430 there was an extremely accurate archer named Punker who was rumoured to possess supernatural powers. It was said that he had enabled the capture of a castle almost single-handed with deadly shots from his bow. In addition a legend about him, similar to one told about the Swiss William Tell, is recounted in Malleus Maleficarum. Alexander Schöppner incorporated this legend as The Bavarian Tell in his collection Book of Legends of the Bavarian Land. The street of Punkerstraße in Rohrbach and the district magazine der punker are named after him.
