Live and act
In 1294, the secular independence of the Stiftspropstei, founded around 1100, had already manifested itself through the acquisition of blood jurisdiction for serious offenses. From 1380 raised to a scepter fief and also represented in the Reichstag with a seat and vote, the power of the Stiftspröpste had increased even further and thus Leoprechtinger's status as provost of the Berchtesgaden Augustinian canon monastery was equated with that of a Reich prelate.
During 1393-1404 the pen as well as a competitor in the salt mining because of its debt nor the Archbishopric of Salzburg incorporated was, it was thanks Leoprechtinger from 1455 by the "metropolitan authority" of the Fürsterzbistums Salzburg freed and was in spiritual things ( Spiritualien ) directly to the Pope assumed. Salzburg protested against this independent archdeaconate of the Berchtesgaden provost, but was unsuccessful. In 1449, Schellenberg, which was still pledged to Salzburg, and its saltworks were returned to the monastery monastery administration. Thanks also to Leoprechtinger, the debt to Salzburg had meanwhile been reduced from 44,000 gold ducats to 24,428. (Not until 1556 were all debts paid and Schellenberg released from the pledge.)
Leoprechtinger was involved in the Gothic design of the collegiate church of St. Peter and John the Baptist in Berchtesgaden . So he and his successor Erasmus Pretschlaiffer had the walls of the side aisles raised and fitted with larger windows.
Bernhard Leoprechtinger died on July 11, 1473 and found his final resting place behind a stone grave slab in the collegiate church in Berchtesgaden. The grave slab shows his coat of arms as well as that of the former provost Peter II. Pinzenauer and covers the actual grave chamber of both provosts.
