Peter von Danzig was a 15th century German fencing master. Apart from the fact that he was apparently born in Danzig (Gdańsk), a coastal city in modern-day Poland, and lived in the city of Ingolstadt in Bavaria, all that can be determined about Danzig's life is that his renown as a master was sufficient for Paulus Kal to include him in the roll of members of the Society of Liechtenauer in 1470.[1]

Danzig is often erroneously credited as the author of the 1452 manuscript Codex 44 A 8 (formerly MS 1449), a compilation of several treatises by different masters. In truth, Danzig only authored the final section of that book, a gloss of Johannes Liechtenauer's Kampffechten.
