UFO Battle Over Nuremberg, Germany In 1561

Hans Glaser was a German journalist from the early 16 century. He is famous for his wonderful yet peculiar woodcut illustration of the events of April 14, 1561, in the German city of Nuremberg. The work depicts weird objects in the sky and haze coming from fallen objects on the ground.
The woodcut came along with a description which we translated into English. Namely, it talks about round objects hovering in the sky and engaging into a fierce encounter over and over again.
“Immense smoke rose from the ground where the objects fell. Many of the objects were red, but there was also a “round ball of partly dull, partly black ferrous color,” and “something like a black spear, very long and thick, sighted; the shaft pointed to the east, the point pointed west.”
Mr. Glaser pointed out how numerous citizens of Nuremberg had the chance to observe this rather uncommon event. He didn’t know how to explain it and attributed it as a deed of God.
