Constructed in Styria, Austria in the early 1400’s, the Punhart Von Steyr is the largest wrought iron bombard by caliber. According to modern calculations, it could fire a a 690 kg stone ball around 600 m using a 15 kg charge of gunpowder. Today the Punhart Von Steyr is on display at the Museum of Military History in Vienna.
