Gotthard of Nonnenberg, an Anabaptist martyr, a deacon in the Jülich-Berg, Germany, Anabaptist group, was beheaded about 1558 with Peter Kramer after a  long  imprisonment. Van Braght relates, "When all saw their boldness, and perceived that they were upright, pious persons, . . . nearly everyone wept; the steward, the judges, deputy, and executioner, as well as the common people." Gotthard and Peter are commemorated in a hymn, "Merckt auff jhr völker überall," found in the German Mennonite hymnal Ein schön gesangbüchlein geistlicher Lieder of about 1580.
