Life

Frielinghaus studied Protestant theology in Göttingen . In 1956 he received his doctorate in theology. Frielinghaus became a member of socialist and communist groups, was active against the rearmament of West Germany and in the peace movement of the Federal Republic. In 1957 he went to Dresden at the request of the All-German Federation of Reformed Congregations . On November 9, 1957, he was ordained and pastor of the local Reformed congregation. In 1975 he moved to Bergholz and was pastor there until his retirement in 1993. From 1984 to 1990 he was chairman of the moderamen of the Reformed congregations in the GDR and represented them in the Berlin-Brandenburg church leadership .

Frielinghaus drew the interest of the Ministry for State Security (MfS) because of his relocation from the Federal Republic, his political positioning and his profession . Accordingly, there were recruitment attempts between 1957 and 1959 and between 1970 and 1976, and the MfS temporarily kept a file on him. However, an investigation initiated by the moderamen of the Reformed Church in 1995 and evaluating these files confirmed his statement that he had always refused to provide information.

In 1991 Frielinghaus was elected President of the Board of Trustees of the Society for the Protection of Civil Rights and Human Dignity (GBM). In 1996 he received the GBM's "Human Rights Prize". In 1995 he was one of the founding members of a support group of the Free German Youth (fdj). He published in the Weißenseer Blätter , the magazine Topos - international contributions to dialectical theory , the Icarus and the Junge Welt . Among other things, he supported the committee for the defense of Slobodan Milošević , the Palestinian liberation movements and demanded the preservation of the Ernst Thalmann memorial in Ziegenhals. He is a member of the DKP and lives with his wife Gisela in Brüssow .
