Hammerschlagen History & Rules:
Hammerschlagen is a German game reportedly dating from 1940, in which several contestants try to hammer a nail into a stump.
Hammerschlagen (“Hammer-Striking”) is a variation of Nailspielen (“Nail Game” or “Playing With Nails”). Both versions are essentially the same, Nailspielen is played with an axe, Hammerschlagen is played with a hammer.
Nailspielen made its way to the United States in the mid-twentieth century. A commercial version was established and named “Hammer-Schlagen”.
