Maestre Anes (circa 1500; † 1542/45, also “Juan Alemán de Aquisgrán”, “Hans from Aachen”) was a member of the first circumnavigation under Ferdinand Magellan 1519–1522 and one of the 18 surviving returnees under Elcano. He sailed around the world again as a participant in the Loaísa Expedition (1525–1526), making him the first German circumnavigator and the first person to circumnavigate the earth twice.
