Aschwin von Salder

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Aschwin von Salder (* around or before 1308 ; † December 11, 1369 ) was provost in St. Blasius Abbey in Braunschweig and canon in Hildesheim and Bremen.

Live and act

Aschwin was the son of the knight Heinrich von Salder and his wife Countess Elisabeth von Wohldenberg . He is considered the most important personality from the Alwin line of the Brunswick-Hildesheim family of Salder . This came from the village of Salder , which was near the Lichtenberge . In 1327, as a candidate for the bishop of Schwerin, he tried to get the parish of St. Nicolai in Stralsund into his possession, as he was destined for a career in the church. In 1329 he became a canon in St. Blasius in Braunschweig. In 1341, Duke Otto the Mild raised him to the post of provost of the Blasiusstift. As provost he was entitled to a special property separate from the chapter. However, the leadership of the chapter was incumbent on a dean elected by the canons. In 1356 he was appointed, together with others, to the council of Ludwig, the son of Duke Wilhelm , as Ludwig was intended as heir to the throne. However, he died before his father in 1367. In addition to Aschwin, this council included the knights Bertold von Reden , Ludolf von Hohnhorst , Segeband von dem Berge, Heinrich Knigge and the squire Paridam Plote. Other relatives of Aschwin are mentioned in the text of a document:

“Aschwin von Salder, provost of St. Blasius in the castle of Braunschweig, his brother Heinrich, his nephews Hans and Siegfried von Salder, Johann von Salder zu Lichtenberg and his sons, Ludolf von Honhorst, chef Diedrich Schlette, the brothers Heinrich and Harneyd von Wrestede, Hans von Honloge, his son Ludolf and his cousin Ludolf issue a lapel that Duke Wilhelm von Braunschweig and Lüneburg gave them the castles Lauenrode, Hanover and Fattensen with Vogtei, two hooves in the field to 'Osterem' in front of Fattensen and the Villages Hilperdingen and Sehnde pledged and the following five among them, namely the Aschwin and Johann von Salder, Ludolf von Honhorst, Hans von Honloge and the chef Schlette, appointed as officials. They vow to keep the pledge and service contract with Duke Ludwig von Braunschweig if the Duke dies without leaving a son. - 1356, December 14th "

These pawned possessions included Ruthe Castle , which belongs to the Hildesheim diocese , Campen Castle from 1349 to 1354 and Lichtenberg Castle in the Duchy of Lüneburg together with his sons and brothers .

Aschwin had attended a university, which he had graduated with the degree of baccalaureus in decretis (in canon law), a corresponding title he had demonstrably since May 13, 1358. He was also from January 13, 1363 as canon and provost of the Moritzstift in Hildesheim and from February 28, 1369 as canon in Bremen and owner of the chapel on the Asseburg . He owned a house on Papenstieg in Braunschweig, which after his death went to the Blasiusstift. A vicariate he had donated was financed from the proceeds . His generous endowments were remembered after his death.

Coat of arms of Saldern

Aschwin of Salder received his grave lay in the old north aisle of St. Blasius before the altars of Paul and Thomas. Until it was renovated in 1739, it was covered with a precious brass plate. The following inscription can be read on this plate in Gothic capitals .

AN (N) O · D (OMI) NI · M · CCC · LXIX · / OBIIT · ASCHWINUS · DE · ZALDEREN. PRAEPOSITUS / ECCLESIE S (ANCTI) / BLASII ET MONTIS S (ANCTI) MAVRITII HILDESIAE
Translation: In the year of the Lord 1369, Aschwin von Saldern, provost of St. Blasii and St. Moritzberg died in Hildesheim. 

The rectangular plate shows the figure of the priest in the middle field, the coat of arms of those of Salder [n] in the foot area. The portrait is framed by the surrounding inscription. Anton August Beck created a watercolor of the plate, presumably while it was still installed there.
