1301: Councilor Vollmer Attendorn donated a poor house in Glockengießerstr. 4th

family

Attendorn's family came from Westphalia and immigrated to Lübeck in the middle of the 13th century. As early as 1286 and 1289, archives record the councilor Volmar I. Attendorn, who was chamberlain in 1286 and 1289 and councilor and school rector in 1291. It could also have been that Volmar I who built a poor house in 1301 on Glockengießerstrasse. His son Volmar II was also a councilor. He had a daughter, Adelheid, who, as Ertmar Crispin's widow, married Heinrich von Wahrendorp. His cousin Konrad Attendorn († 1339), the son of Eberhard Attendorn, was a council member in 1306 and 1324-1339 mayor of Lübeck. This Konrad donated a chapel in the St. Johanniskirche.

His son Gottschalk established a vicarie in the mentioned chapel by will of January 16, 1349, which was confirmed in 1352, and also a vicarie at the St. Catherine's Church. His mother's name was Gertrud (Druda) and his brothers were the councilor Eberhard, who died in 1349 on a pilgrimage to Jerusalem, and a daughter Hedwig, who married Simon Swering, Gottschalk, Bruwinus (also Vrowin; † 1348) and the abbess of the Johanniskloster Gertrud von Attendorn . Gerhard's sons Gerhard (1359 proconsul, 1367 mayor † 1396), Gottschalk (1377 councilor; † 1388) and daughter Gertrud (married to Johannes Wesler) are known. Another Volmar III. Attendorn was slain in his field in 1334. Numerous clergymen of the Attendorn family also turn up. According to Scholtz, his father is said to have been a councilor, according to Melle, the son of Eberhard Attendorn. However, one can also cast doubt on these statements, since Attendorn is the guardian of a property acquired by Volmar Attendorn in 1331.

Life

Eberhard was determined by his family to the clergy, had started as a canon in Lübeck in 1365 at the University of Bologna and is mentioned in Bologna in 1371 as procurator. On November 12, 1372, Attendorn received a promise from Pope Gregory XI. to the position of canon of the Schwerin church , and receives this in 1377. At the last-mentioned time he is licentiate in canon law and also provost of Eutin. After August 3, 1387, he was unanimously elected bishop as Dean of Lübeck Abbey and was confirmed by the Pope on December 10, 1387.

As Bishop of Lübeck, he primarily meets as a signatory of documents. In 1394 the bishop, Eberhard von Attendorn, approved and formally established the brotherhood of all vicars in the whole city of Lübeck. On December 9, 1397, he gave his consent to the establishment of the Carthusian monastery in Ahrensbök . With a lot of effort he built a chapel in Eutin and one in Lübeck. Deviating from the family coat of arms, it sealed with a coat of arms that shows St. Michael with the coat of arms of the Attendorn. After his death he was buried in the choir of the Lübeck Cathedral .
