Move to Hannoversch Münden

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The move out of the Göttingen student body to Hann. Münden 1806 was the first excerpt from the Georg-August-Universität Göttingen in the 19th century.

prehistory

After the successful first move of the Göttingen students to Kerstlingeröder Feld in 1790 and the successful move of the Jenens student body to Nohra near Weimar in 1792 , the move from a university town as a tried and tested weapon of the student body had become a legend. As early as 1802 there had been student unrest in Göttingen, during which another move was planned; they were ended with the help of the military. The Electorate of Hanover and thus also its University of Göttingen was Prussian at the time until the Peace of Amiens , and French occupied since the Artlenburg Convention . With the Treaty of Paris on February 15, 1806, another occupation by Prussia followed.

Ulrichs Garten 1801 on a record book sheet

On one of the Christmas holidays in 1805, disputes broke out between citizens and students at a celebration of Göttingen citizens and students in Ulrich's garden after students playing billiards were disturbed by a pipe-smoking butcher and had destroyed his porcelain pipe. There was a major physical confrontation, which escalated through the use of academic hunters and pedels. Thereupon the students, organized as a country team , decided to move to Hann. Münden, which took place from January 5 to 12, 1806, but without the Kurlanders' country team. Contemporary sources report that 300–400 students after Hann. Münden in military order. The university and the government in Hanover did not respond to the demands of the students for the satisfaction and punishment of the citizens and academic hunters and, for their part, put the students under pressure to return to Göttingen if they agreed to an amnesty, from which the three main leaders were excluded. The move to Hann. Münden was therefore unsuccessful for its initiators.

The senior of the vandals Louis Spangenberg was once identified as the leader on the part of the University of Göttingen and the Commissioner Higher Appeal Court Councilor Carl Graf von Hardenberg , who was sent to Göttingen by the government in Hanover . He presented a printed justification in Rostock in 1806 because of the excerpt and the accusations made against him by the university and government and was one of the sons of Rostock university professor Peter Ludolph Spangenberg, who died in 1794, and grandson of the former mayor of Göttingen, Ernst August Spangenberg . In addition, there was the student Alexander Wolf from Hildesheim, who also fled from Göttingen with Spangenberg. Both were sentenced in absentia in February 1806 relegated .

The Swiss Siegmund Ferdinand Keller was named as a further leader . He was the only one of the three leaders who did not escape by fleeing, but rather presented himself to the academic authorities in Göttingen. He was therefore immediately from the lockup dismissed and also went unpunished.

The Hamburger Wochenblatt Nordische Miszellen reported extensively and critically on the events in Göttingen as well as other German and Swiss periodicals.
