The work of Albert von Bardewik at the end of the 13th century as Council Chancellor of the Hanseatic City of Lübeck is of great importance for the chronicle of the city following Arnold von Lübeck and his immediate successor as well as for legal historians yesterday and today. In 1291 the tailor, who had become successful and wealthy in the Flanders trade, was elected to the Lübeck council. In 1294 he had a code of law ( Bardewikscher Codex ) laid down.

In a copy ( Der Bardewick'sche Copiarius ) he collected copies of Lübeck documents and privileges. On its fol 335 to 350 he summarized important local and national events from 1298 to 1301, using reports from Council Secretary Alexander Huno and the Lübeck envoy in Riga, Luderus de Rameslo . In 1299 he put, also in the copy (fol. Fol. 354 to 361), the maritime law provisions for the voyage to Flanders , i.e. from the Baltic Sea to the Hanseatic office in Bruges , in writing ( Ius maritimum Lubecense de anno 1299 ).

As mayor, Bardewik represented the city council in negotiations with its militant Bishop Burkhard von Serkem in 1308 . After 1310 he is no longer mentioned as a politician.

family

His first marriage was to Anna Steneke, a daughter of the Lübeck mayor Hinrich Steneke . From this marriage his son Arnold von Bardewik emerged, who also became a councilor in Lübeck. In his second marriage he married Elisabeth Morneweg, the widow of Lübeck's mayor Alexander Lüneburg . From this second marriage came the daughter Gertrud / Geseke, who was married to the much older Lübeck mayor Hinrich Pleskow at a very young age .
