Cathedral Capitular Audience

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Domkapitularsche Audienz was a judicial and administrative unit of the clerical principality of Fulda .

history

The cathedral chapter audience was an office in which the provost of the cathedral chapter exercised the rulership rights instead of the abbot , hence the designation as a provost office.

In the 17th century, the abbot's conflict with the chapter led to the provost's offices being independent of the Fulda government. In 1656 the first agreement between the abbot and the chapter was made, which was confirmed in 1681 and lastly in 1726. The monastery thus had the unrestricted bailiwick and had all administrative and judicial rights except for the center . The probationary officials collected the taxes and delivered them directly to the state revenue. The subjects paid homage to the prince, who also had the embarrassing jurisdiction.

The provost was at the head of the provost's office. An official was employed on site who had the duties of a bailiff , but carried the official title of official.

When the Principality of Nassau-Oranien-Fulda was established in 1803 as a result of the Reichsdeputationshauptschluss , a reorganization of the existing offices was carried out in relation to jurisdiction and administration with the sovereign ordinance concerning the superiors and offices of January 8, 1803. The cathedral capitular audience was canceled and the inner-city components were assigned to the Vizedomamt Fulda and the components outside the city of Fulda to the Centoberamt Fulda and the Weyher office.

scope

At the end of the HRR , the office consisted of some suburbs of the residence, namely the Hinterburg winery, the Hospital of the Holy Spirit and the Leinwebergraben as well as the villages or courts of Dietershan, a Hof zu Lehnerz, the cold hostel, today's Leipzigerhof, the Winnenhof and Ziehers in the area of ​​Centfuld, as well as Hattenroth and Melters in Weyher's office.
