Heinrich Brömse (lawyer)
Heinrich Brömse (born January 12, 1476 in Lübeck , † January 25, 1542 ibid) was a German lawyer and imperial councilor.
Life
Heinrich Brömse was a son of the Lübeck mayor Heinrich Brömse , who came from the Lüneburg council family . Among his siblings were the councilor Dietrich Brömse , the Lübeck mayor Nikolaus Brömse and the abbess Adelheid Brömse . Together with their parents and other siblings, they are depicted on the side wings of the family altar from 1515 in the Broemsen Chapel of the Jakobikirche in Lübeck .
His father's will of November 11, 1501 shows that he was intended for the clergy. Heinrich studied law at the University of Rostock from 1491 and received his bachelor's degree there in 1494. Like his father before, he also attended the University of Bologna , where in 1502 he was elected one of the two procurators of the German nation . From 1505 to 1507 he was the syndic of the University of Bologna. He then returned to Lübeck before Trinity in 1511. In 1511 he became a member of the patrician circle society in Lübeck .
During the Wullenwever period he left Lübeck in 1530 and went to the imperial court. His secret departure led to unrest in the Protestant population, who feared that he would persecute the Lutherans there. In the months that followed, the citizens' committees succeeded in pushing through the Reformation and received assurance from the council that they would represent this resolution before the emperor. With a doctorate in law, Heinrich Brömse entered the imperial service and was appointed imperial council by Emperor Charles V in August 1531, together with his brother Nikolaus, who had also left Lübeck in April 1531 , and knighted in 1532. He and his brother supported the Old Council and the Catholic Party. Through the mediation of the Hamburg council , to which Wullenwever's brother Joachim belonged, peace negotiations between Lübeck and the Netherlands took place in Hamburg in March 1534 with the participation of imperial envoys and representatives from other Hanseatic cities. When Heinrich Brömse demanded the restoration of the old order in Lübeck in the name of the emperor, Wullenwever left the assembly prematurely. But the failure of the count's feud led to a turning point in Lübeck's policy, which enabled the Brömse brothers to return in 1535.
Heinrich Brömse was born together with his wife Gertrud, who died in 1527. von Lente is buried in Lübeck Cathedral , where his grave slab is preserved in the von Brömbsen family chapel . The epitaph for his coat of arms in the cathedral has not survived and was last mentioned in 1742; it stated his age as 67 years and 17 days.
