(cathedral dean 1753–1785)

The Halberstadt cathedral chapter is not mentioned until the 10th century. The members mostly came from noble families from Lower Saxony, with the high nobility setting the tone until the 15th century.

The dignitary were cathedral provost and cathedral dean , with the cathedral provost losing his influence in favor of the cathedral dean since the 15th century. The cathedral chapter itself had the provosts over the collegiate monasteries to Liebfrauen , SS. Bonifatii et Mauritii , SS. Petri et Pauli and Walbeck .

In 1521 there were the first Protestant sermons in the Martinikirche . There were later attempts to introduce the Reformation in 1525 and 1530, but they were unsuccessful. In 1540 the parish churches became Protestant. The Protestant denomination was released in 1541.

Although the bishopric and diocese of Halberstadt were secularized in 1648, the cathedral chapter continued to exist and the biconfessional status was established.

In 1810 it was repealed by the government of the Kingdom of Westphalia .

Number of members

In 1752 there were, for example, 28 Kanonikerstellen, including 20 major and eight Minorpräbenden, further up to an additional 24 Electi that one as Exspektanten can view. In 1794, the cathedral chapter consisted of the cathedral provost of 16 capitulars, four of whom were Catholic, 8 minor praise dates , and 28 aspirants or electi .
