Johann Georg Grasel (April 4, 1790 in Nové Syrovice near Moravské Budějovice – January 31, 1818, hanged in Vienna) was the leader of robber's gang. His name is used in Czech as a common term for a rascal or villain (grázl) to this day. Unlike many others of his kind Grasel entered folk legends, both as a noble hero who took from the rich to give to the poor and as a brutal rascal. The second interpretation made it into Czech and the word grázl (meaning villain) is now commonly used, even without knowledge of its origin.

April 1790 in , tschechisch Nové Syrovice, bei Mährisch Budwitz, heute Moravské Budějovice; † 31. Jänner 1818 in Wien) war ein böhmisch/mährisch/österreichischer Räuber. Der Sohn eines Abdeckers lebte von Diebstählen, Raub, Betrug und Hehlerei und scharte dabei eine Bande von etwa 60 Mitgliedern um sich, was ihm in Niederösterreich und Südmähren den Ruf eines gefürchteten „Räuberhauptmanns“ einbrachte. 1815 wurde er in Mörtersdorf bei Horn gefangen genommen und später in Wien hingerichtet. In der Volksüberlieferung wurde er postum ohne reale Basis als edler Räuber stilisiert, der – ähnlich Robin Hood – die Reichen bestahl und die Armen beschenkte. Daraus nährt sich die moderne touristische Vermarktung Grasels. Der Name Grasel ist der Ursprung des tschechischen Ausdrucks grázl (für Gauner). (de)
  • Johann Georg Grasel (April 4, 1790 in Nové Syrovice near Moravské Budějovice – January 31, 1818, hanged in Vienna) was the leader of robber's gang. His name is used in Czech as a common term for a rascal or villain (grázl) to this day. Grasel was born into the poor family of a knacker. Both his father and his mother helped themselves by stealing, occasionally ending up in prison. Young Johann was forced to steal to survive and at the age of 9 he entered prison for the first time (for 2 weeks). Grasel became leader of several groups of brutal robbers in south Moravia and northern Lower Austria. He managed to escape from prison several times. In 1815 he and his group of 66 were caught by the authorities. Grasel was accused of 205 crimes, including several murders and sentenced to death. Sixty thousand people watched when he and his two colleagues were hanged; when Grasel saw the crowds, he uttered his last words: "Jesus, so many people". Unlike many others of his kind Grasel entered folk legends, both as a noble hero who took from the rich to give to the poor and as a brutal rascal. The second interpretation made it into Czech and the word grázl (meaning villain) is now commonly used, even without knowledge of its origin. (en)
