Hans Müller von Bulgenbach
Hans Müller, also known as Hans Müller von Bulgenbach, (c.1490 – 12 August 1525 in Habsburg-Laufenburg), was a peasant leader during the German Peasants' War. After a career in the French military, he played a pivotal role in the initial peasant uprising at Stuhlingen, and organised peasant bands throughout southwestern Germany. He was captured after the peasants' loss at Klettgau in July 1525, imprisoned at the Hohentwiel fortress, and executed in August of that year.
