A terrifying sign of God's wonder, seen in the sky above Plassenburg on January 11th of the year 1571, printed for all as a call to repentance
 |
According to the historical report above, two strange, mechanical- like clouds were visible over the German city of Kulmbach on the night of January 11 |
On the night of June 11, beginning at 1:00 a.m., a very large, fiery cloud appeared in the sky. After some time, it opened up, revealing a large, powerful hand holding a heavy sword protruding from within. A loud rumble followed, like the clash of heavy armor in the fever of battle.
Later, the cloud suddenly descended, alarming witnesses who feared it might crash onto the houses below. Observing from rooftops, some domestic servants claimed they saw the cloud armed, besides the sword, with what they believed were two long, protruding spears.
After a short while, another cloud—this one blue—appeared and positioned itself in front of the fiery cloud, as if preparing for battle. But before long, both clouds vanished without a trace.
The next day, farmers near Kulmbach reported a strange, wandering object in the clear blue sky. It remained stationary for a time, then circled the nearby beech forest, moved off, and eventually disappeared.
Likewise, on the following night, June 12, a large comet with a long tail appeared in the sky and remained visible until morning.
The Historical Context Surrounding the Alleged UFO Sighting

The city of Kulmbach, with Plassenburg Castle in the background |
Historically, Kulmbach was the capital of the Principality of Bayreuth, and Plassenburg played a key role as the seat of power for its dukes.
It was here that the sighting described in A Terrifying Sign of God's Wonder, Seen in the Sky Above Plassenburg on January 11th of the Year 1571, Printed for All as a Call to Repentance took place.
Our Evaluation of the Alleged UFO Sighting
Celestial events such as comets, meteor showers, and unusual cloud formations were often interpreted as divine omens or warnings, particularly in the time of war, or disease.
The fiery cloud and sword-bearing hand described in the report resemble apocalyptic imagery common in Christian iconography, possibly influenced by biblical references such as the “sword of the Lord” seen in the heavens.
Likewise, the dramatic interpretation of armed clouds and rumbling sounds may have resulted from a combination of meteorological phenomena—such as thunderstorms and noctilucent clouds.
The mention of two long spears is very interesting, as antennas immediately came to mind.
As for the strange wandering object seen near Kulmbach, it may have been a bright celestial body such as Venus, or an atmospheric event like ball lightning or a lenticular cloud. The appearance of a comet on June 12 further reinforced public fears, as comets were traditionally seen as harbingers of disaster.
Whether something truly mysterious or easily explainable, I consider this historical report an interesting contribution to the study of unexplained atmospheric phenomena.
