Life

Daniel Hänichen was born as the son of the pastor Kasper Gallicus (also: Hänichen; * 1521 in Hänichen; † 26.07. □ 28.07.1591 in Zöblitz) and his wife Ursula Pfeiffer (* Hänichen; † 04.10.1577 in Zöblitz). Initially, he laid the foundations of his education at the primary school in his place of birth. His father sent him to Marienberg , Freiberg , Braunschweig and Hanover for further training . After staying at the latter place for three years, he enrolled at the University of Leipzig in the winter semester of 1584 . Here he pursued philosophical and theological studies. On January 22, 1588 he moved to the University of Wittenberg , where he acquired the academic degree of a master's degree in philosophy on March 19, 1588.

After he had completed further studies at the University of Helmstedt , he took over the position of the rector of the school in his place of birth around 1589. In January 1592 he moved there to the pastor's position there, but in the same year he moved to Marienberg as a deacon. In 1600 he was promoted to pastor in Mittweida . In 1602 he became pastor and superintendent in Annaberg-Buchholz . Finally, on October 2, 1610, he was appointed third court preacher to Dresden , where he rose to second court preacher in 1613. Due to an ongoing conflict with the first court preacher Matthias Hoë von Hoënegg , he went to Prague in 1618 as court preacher to Count Peter von Schwanberg , where he also worked as a theologian of the Protestant estates in the Kingdom of Bohemia, but died the next year. The funeral service for him took place in the Trinity Church of the German-speaking Lutherans.
