Karnöffel is a trick-taking card game which probably came from the upper-German language area in Europe in the first quarter of the 15th century. It first appeared listed in a municipal ordinance of Nördlingen, Bavaria, in 1426 among the games that could be lawfully played at the annual city fête.[2] This makes the game the oldest identifiable European card game in the history of playing cards with a continuous tradition of play down to the present day.[3]
