Welcome to Old-Shatterhand.us
This web site is dedicated to Karl May's famous Frontiersman, Old Shatterhand.
Karl May's first person narratives feature Old Shatterhand most prominently yet despite this fearful name they are, above all, morality tales, but this message to mankind is often neglected. His most famous work, the Winnetou saga, revolves around a young Apache who learns about and eventually embraces the moral teachings that pave the way to a peaceful co-existance between all the tribes of man on this earth. The very teaching that is so often ignored in our own society where greed and avarice prevail over common sense and the fair practices of equal justice for all.

Help us Free Winnetou and Old Shatterhand!
![]() | The Karl May Verlag, long believed to disseminate Karl May's message of peace has succumbed to the same greed for gold that Santer, the murderer of Nsho-tshi and Intshu-tshuna, had. Help us free Winnetou and his blood brother Old Shatterhand from the trademark bondage imposed upon them by the Karl May Verlag and KarlMayUSA. Please add your name to our petition to extinguish the Winnetou trademark. |
