Degener Buggenhagen

Degener Buggenhagen , also Degner Buggenhagen († July 16, 1420 in Garbodenhagen near Stralsund ) was a German nobleman and hereditary marshal of the Duchy of Pomerania-Wolgast .

He came from the old Pomeranian knight family von Buggenhagen . As hereditary land marshal, he was feuding with Cord Bonow , an influential Roman Catholic clergyman. Buggenhagen was close to the cities of Greifswald and Stralsund , which had conflicts with Bonow. One of the conflicts was the Papenbrand thom Sunde , in which Stralsund citizens burned three Roman Catholic clergy in 1407. After the death of Duke Wartislaw VIII of Pomerania-Wolgast in 1415, the Dowager Duchess Anna led the government for her underage sons Barnim VIII and Swantibor II and for their cousins Wartislaw IX. and Barnim VII. At her side was a Regency Council headed by Bonow, but to which Buggenhagen also belonged.

Probably in 1417 or 1419, Buggenhagen, supported by the towns, killed Bonow. The deed happened in Groß Kiesow near Greifswald. Duchess Anna was so bitter that in 1420 she had Buggenhagen killed by one of her followers, Henneke von Behr, who, under the assurance of free conduct , met the young Duke Wartislaw IX on July 16, 1420 . in the mill of Garbodenhagen near Stralsund. The deed took place on the duke's table. Then the revenge of the cities of Greifswald and Stralsund was directed against von Behr and his helpers, who could be executed in Stralsund in early 1421. Under the influence of such events, Duke Wartislaw IX came to an agreement. still in 1421 with the cities and the nobility of his country on the establishment of courts of justice to be occupied half by representatives of the nobility and half of the cities in order to secure legal peace.
