history
Emperor Heinrich III. around 1040 had an imperial castle built on a sandstone rock above the Pegnitz to protect the imperial forest . Nuremberg developed below the castle and was first mentioned in a document in 1050. In 1219 Nuremberg was granted imperial freedom. The Nuremberg main churches St. Sebald and St. Lorenz zum Heiligen Grab were initially branch churches of Poppenreuth and Fürth, respectively. In 1474 the city council of Nuremberg got the right to propose its parish churches . St. Lorenz and St. Sebald were raised in 1477 and were no longer subordinate to the spiritual jurisdiction of the Bishop of Bamberg . In 1513, Nuremberg succeeded in acquiring the patronage rights for the parishes of St. Sebald and St. Lorenz by paying an annual pension of 100 guilders from the Bishop of Bamberg to reverse the dependency relationship with the parishes of Poppenreuth and Fürth. The payments were made until the secularization of the principality in 1802. From March 3 to 14, 1525, a religious discussion took place in the town hall . Thereafter, on March 17th, Catholic preaching and pastoral care, and from April 21st, 1525, Mass in the monasteries was banned. During the Reformation, the parishes of the decant district belonged either to the imperial city of Nuremberg itself or to its land area.
