Christman Genipperteinga (c. 1569 – 17 June 1581) was a German serial killer and bandit of the 16th century. He reportedly murdered 964 individuals starting in his youth over a 13-year period, from 1569 until his capture in 1581. Records of Christman Genipperteinga's life survive from a book printed 1581 or shortly thereafter; in 1587 a condensed account was included in a collection of calendar histories. An even more condensed Czech translation of that account appeared in 1590. A French translation was published in 1598, illustrated with a woodcut exhibiting the various details of the tale.
