With the election of the master butcher Peter Kistler for Schultheissen of Bern on April 23 starting Twingherrenstreit between the nobility and the notables of the city. With the intention of expelling the noble families from the council and curtailing their powers and privileges in favor of the city of Bern, the council passed a strict dress code that aroused fierce resistance from the nobility. During a fair in the Bern Minster , the von Bubenberg , von Erlach , von Diesbach , Matter, von Ringoltingen and others demonstratively appear in their forbidden clothes. This leads to a court hearing in which the noble families insist on their outward demarcation from the common people and defend this as an innate privilege willed by God. The spokesman for the nobility party and the main opponent of Peter Kistler is the master furrier Hans Fränkli . The process ends with fines and everyone involved is banned from the city of Bern for one month. After a short period of time, however, the Bernese Council felt compelled, for economic reasons, to let the exiles back into the city and to change the clothing laws in favor of the noble families.
