Blankenburg

by Peter Wiegel · Website

Blankenburg is a heavy Fraktur blackletter from Peter Wiegel that carries the dense, ornate character of traditional German gothic typefaces. The bold letterforms are richly detailed with the broken strokes and sharp diamond-shaped serifs characteristic of the style, giving it genuine historical weight rather than a modern approximation. Best at display sizes for headlines, certificates, beer labels, or anything rooted in medieval and Germanic visual tradition.
