Almost certainly your sword is a 19th or even 20th century product. It is an imitation of a South German bearing/ceremonial two-hander in style but the details of the parrying lugs, crossguard and pommel are too crude to be the work of one of the great 16th century smiths of Munich and Passau. The weight is correct for a bearing sword of c.1600 - combat two-handers weighed roughly 2 to 3 kilos. I hope that helps.
