Hut, Hans (d. 1527) |
 | | Hans Hut (Hutt, Huth, Huet) is correctly known as the apostle of the Anabaptists in Upper Austria, although his work and influence extended far beyond its borders, at first in his home country, Franconia, then in Bavaria and Salzburg, Moravia, and Silesia. |
 | | Hans Hut was by far the most significant early apostle of Anabaptism in the region extending from Thuringia to the Tyrol and from Württemberg to Moravia. |
 | | Hut was present at the battle of Frankenhausen until the "shooting became too thick," and he defended the peasants' cause after that in Bibra, supporting the efforts of the local leader, Jörg Haug. |
