Free world noble von Jena'sches Fräuleinstift

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Facade to Rathausstrasse

The Freiweltliche nobelige von Jena'sche Fräuleinstift (short form: Jena'sches Fräuleinstift ; also Jenastift ) was a women's monastery in Halle . The monastery was located at Hallenser Rathausstrasse 15. It consisted of up to nine single women from the aristocracy, who also found room and board under the direction of a noble evangelical-reformed abbess . The canons who had joined up until 1945 were very self-confident and dedicated themselves to nursing the sick out of Christian charity. A canoness still known today under the last abbess was Erna von Abendroth , the first nurse with a doctorate .

founding

The foundation goes back to the childless curator of the first Halle University, Gottfried von Jena (1627–1703), who moved to Halle at the age of 70 and acquired citizenship there. He made around 60 thousand thalers available. On December 30, 1702, Friedrich I of Prussia confirmed the deed of foundation for the "Jena'ische Fräuleinstift" in Halle's Rathausstrasse. The coat of arms applied for by the founder and approved by the Prussian king also adorned the wall of the former large hall on the first floor facing the courtyard during the GDR era. The canons lived in the former Gottfried von Jenas house, a representative Renaissance building , which is also known as Hallesches Stadtpalais .

Pen name

In the course of the history of the only noble women's monastery in the city of Halle, various names were used for this monastery for single women from the nobility. The preacher and later cathedral preacher Adolf Zahn (1824–1900) described the women's monastery, which he spiritually supervised, as “v. Jenasches noble fräuleinstift ”and referred to the fact that the“ baron Gottfried von Jena ”had furnished the“ big house in the Rathausgasse as a free worldly fräuleinstift with very good regulations ”. The former monastery house, once located in Rathausgasse, which was renamed Rathausstrasse, is listed in the 2014 city center map of Halle as "Former (noble) Jenastift" among the notable buildings and monuments.

In the address book of 1946 the conventional name “v. Jenasches aristocratic fräuleinstift ”and classified the pen in the“ institutional facilities of welfare care ”under“ retirement and nursing home for the elderly and infirm ”.

Ownership and use after 1945

By resolution of the state government of Saxony-Anhalt on February 2, 1949 under Prime Minister Erhard Hübener , the von Jena'sche Fräuleinstift was converted into a direct ecclesiastical institution of the Evangelical Reformed cathedral community in Halle. In 1952 the last abbess of the monastery died - beginning of her term of office in 1925 - Anna von Seydlitz-Kurzbach. The last canon, Miss von Rohrscheidt († 1974) lived with her formerly "civilly" married sister and later widow until her own death in the former women's foundation. One of the last student pastors to work at the Jenastift from 1970 to 1973 was the Protestant theologian Wolf Krötke (* 1930), later professor of systematic theology at the theological faculty of the Humboldt University in Berlin . After the monastery building was sold to the city in 1976 for reasons of high costs and in need of renovation, the Halle Evangelical Student Community (ESG) , which had been based there for decades, and the "Choir of the Halle Student Community", the Kurrende , under its director, cathedral organist Reinhard Ohse , moved out of the former rooms of the former superior, including the "Red Salon" and the hall on the first floor, to another home within the university town. The former monastery building became a municipal administrative center and now belongs to the neighboring town hall. In the architecture guide of Halle (Saale) from 2002, this historic building in the old town is recognized as one of the most impressive patrician properties from the Renaissance period.

Memorial plaque, coat of arms and pen seal

coat of arms

A memorial plaque informs about the history of the building:

“This is where the first curator of the Friedrich University of Halle, the Electoral Brandenburg Secret Council and Chancellor of the Duchy of Magdeburg GOTTFRIED von JENA (1624–1703) lived. He founded an Evangelical Reformed monastery for single women from the nobility. The free world noble von Jena'sche Fräuleinstift was in this house from 1703 to 1962. "

After 1945, war-damaged and colorless, hung over the arch of the entrance portal of the Jenastift the central state coat of arms of Prussia and in its 12 fields the coat of arms of the Prussian provinces and states, including the coat of arms of the province of Saxony , to which the Jenastift in Halle belonged. The royal Prussian coat of arms was first placed on March 23, 1703 above the gate of the monastery building in what was then Rathausgasse, together with the monastery coat of arms. The public affixing of this coat of arms had the function of a royal Prussian letter of protection -  Salva Guardia  - and was regulated in document number 381 of January 4, 1703, issued by Prussian Minister of State Paul Freiherr von Fuchs .

The middle Prussian national coat of arms can be seen in its original place after a colorful restoration by a Halle craftsman. The coat of arms of the monastery was depicted in the seal of the Freiweltlichen aristocratic von Jena'schem Fräuleinstifts : two angel figures, who bend their heads and wings over a larger coat of arms and are each lightly clad with a dark-colored stole over their white robes, turn with their distinctive faces to an octagonal star . In the larger coat of arms with a crossing and a ball in fields 1 and 4 as well as a transverse bar in fields 2 and 3 there is another smaller coat of arms with a Prussian eagle flying to the left. In the circular pen seal there was also the Latin inscription in capital letters: SIGILLUM CONVENTUAL VIRGINUM NOBILIUM ( seal of the convent of the noble virgins). The abbess or the appointed lawyer had to use green wax to seal the collegiate documents .

Renaissance monument in Halle's old town

back

The representative building of the former noble fräuleinstift is one of the Renaissance monuments in the old town of Halle. The Austrian facade of the former monastery building on Rathausstrasse is loosened up by a generous gate entrance and a pedestrian portal from the Renaissance period. The stone frame of the gate is adorned with diamond blocks , which are emphasized by a yellow paint. The gate entrance once led into the quiet, relaxing courtyard, which was enclosed by an east and a west wing. An artificial fountain was located on the courtyard grounds, which included trees and a garden, for the canons of the Reformed Confession and the cathedral preachers who looked after them spiritually, as well as the curators .

The abbey residents and their guests were initially able to use a separate entrance - the pedestrian portal - to their house. This richly decorated pedestrian portal was removed during renovation work in 1876, but was retained by being built into the monastery property wall. In 1999, the city of Halle added it to its original location on the Rathausstrasse building front as a characteristic style element of the German Renaissance. A stone spiral staircase leads to the individual floors of the multi-storey building . The two stone niches adorned with shells from the door to the staircase of the Wendelstein, which found their place there during the renovation of the facade in 1876, were re-installed in the original pedestrian portal of the former monastery building. The stone arch above the pedestrian gate is framed in a straight line by two Ionic columns and the resulting space offers space for the heads of the faces of two angel figures, as they appeared similarly in the monastery coat of arms and seals. In the high renaissance, the stonemason created a bearded male head into the portal arch and above it another face that interrupts a spiral line for decoration - the volute - in the middle.

The spiral staircase is housed in an octagonal spiral stone, which was attached as a tower to the house wall of the monastery building on the courtyard side. The abbess, the canonesses and their guests, and centuries later students and speakers from professorial circles who came to the student community, used these stairs to get to the first floor through a semicircular wooden door and then into a spacious (entrance) hall. In the former reception room there are two coats of arms, a small one of Baron Gottfried v. Jena with the year 1697, the founding year of the foundation of the Evangelical Reformed Hospital for Christian Love by Gottfried von Jena at the former Hallenser Neumarkt, above the fireplace and a larger one on the courtyard side, which is used as the "alliance coat of arms" of the building's previous owner Moritz Johann Marschall von Bieberstein and his noble wife, née von Zedler, was identified. Gottfried von Jena came into possession of the city palace through his second wife Elisabeth, a née Marshal von Bieberstein. In the 1950s, the firebox of the stucco-decorated fireplace, which was temporarily clad with a fabric ceiling, served as a backdrop for the performance of plays by the ESG crowd. The stucco ornament is still on the ceiling in the former living room of the abbess - the so-called "red salon" because of its originally red-colored furnishings - a banded decoration. When the Evangelical Student Congregation (ESG) Halle had its first domicile after the Second World War , after the reopening of the Martin Luther University Halle-Wittenberg until 1976, the last canon, who had lived in the building since 1941, hung in these rooms again. Ilse v. Rohrscheidt, the oil painting Lago di Garda from 1853 transferred to ESG Halle under the direction of Rudolf Schulze around 1968/69. Miss von Rohrscheidt had once received the painting as a gift from the last abbess, Anna von Seydlitz-Kurzbach.

Former canons

Cathedral preacher Zahn cared for the canons pastoral care. According to the order of the founder Gottfried von Jena , prayer hours were to be held daily. The pastor paid tribute to participating nuns in his memoir . During his tenure in Halle, the abbess Albertine v. Hagen the pen. Her fate touched the Reformed clergyman, Zahn, and so he mentioned in his memoirs that this abbess who "never missed a sermon ... died so unexpectedly quickly of a suddenly developing throat cancer in terrible shortness of breath". In the case of her successor, Abbess Auguste von Jena , the cathedral preacher Zahn noted that with her, the old gender name of Jena came into play again when she took over the management of the monastery. She had tastefully renewed the Jenastift so that it “reminded of old glory and comfort,” as Zahn noted. Auguste von Jena was honored several times with Prussian medals and awards. Her highest order was the Cross of Merit for women and virgins, the Order of Louisen . In the case of Fräulein von Fun (c) k , a daughter of the Prussian Major General Funck , who was born in 1812 and lived in Jenastift from 1856 until her death in 1874, the cathedral preacher mentioned her voluntary social work in the “women's association of the city”. The Mademoiselle de Ledebur (1854-1938), on the Expektanz list since 1874, characterized tooth as loved gracious, witty and all that "the preacher could not often enough to stimulating conversation in her room." Except gave the abbess There was a senior citizen as another dignitary , who led the assembly - the convention - of the noble ladies (conventual women). For example, Ernestine v. Seelhorst , born in 1796 and joined the Jenastift in 1837, in 1874 the senior citizen according to the address book and apartment advertiser for the entire city of Halle ad S. and Giebichenstein along with statistical and typographical notes from the 1874 hall circle .

The position is filled by the Prussian Queen

The Prussian Queen had the mandatory right to propose a vacancy, the so-called Jus primariarum precum , e.g. B. with Anna Franziska von Bernatre (1667–1748). Until she took over the management of the Jenastift as abbess in 1709 - due to the influence of the Queen in Prussia Sophie Charlotte (1668–1705) - Anna Franziska von Bernatre was one of the royal court ladies and came before as a religious refugee, so-called Réfugié , from France. By exercising the queen's right to propose and appoint posts, Sophie Eleonore von Bär (* 1684), who joined the Jenastift in 1712, also became abbess, term of office: from 1749 until her death at the age of 70. Irrespective of the right to fill two vacant posts in the monastery, which was sold to the Prussian state in 1892 - represented by the Ministry of the Interior - 59-year-old Gisela von Jena , who had already joined the Jenastift in 1899, was last elected abbess as precist in 1914 . With her, the German Empress Auguste Victoria, in her capacity as Queen of Prussia, who visited Halle on the occasion of the inauguration of the Pauluskirche together with Wilhelm II. In 1903, perceived the Jus primariarum precum . Due to her sudden death, Gisela v. Jena only hold this office until 1915. In the same year 1915 the canoness Therese v. Jena , who had lived in the monastery since 1875, was elected as her successor and held this privileged position until her death in the Weimar Republic in 1925 .

Protection and mercy symbol of the Prussian king for the Jena pen and cross chain

On certain occasions such as introductions to office, conventions, elections, church services, weddings, christenings, trips and funerals, the abbesses and canonesses wore the mark of protection and mercy conferred on September 22, 1707 by the Prussian king on the free world noble von Jena'schem Fräuleinstift . The first abbess of the Jenastift, Eleonore Sophie von Börstel (1656–1708), term of office from 1703 to 1708, was able to put the medal on her clothing for the first time at the award ceremony on October 26, 1707. The sign of protection and mercy hung on a ribbon and consisted of an oval made of ducat gold with a Christian cross on the white enameled front and on the green enamelled back the order bore the inscription:

"Sr. Royal Majest. in Prussia a symbol of protection and grace for the Gospel created by Dero Cantzler Gottfried von Jena. Reformed Adeliche Fräulein-Stift 1707. "

The cross on the front of the order for the conventual women was kept entirely in white and was deliberately chosen as a symbolic color of innocence for the design of the sign of grace by the ruling Count Wartenberg and also commented on by him. Below the sign of protection and mercy hung the crowned royal initial name "FR" of Friedrich I. The abbess and the conventuals wore the award on a gris-de-lin ribbon around the neck, shoulders and on the chest. The abbess had to wear black or white clothing inside and outside the monastery. The pen ladies had to wear a short, violet coat in the Christian symbolic color over their clothes , but outside of the pen they were allowed to dress as they liked, but without "causing a nuisance" due to excessive splendor. The protection and mercy mark remained the property of the monastery upon leaving through marriage or death and was transferred to the person who was elected as the subsequent canoness or abbess. The heirs were free, in honor of the deceased, to place the sign of grace with the ribbon on the coffin during the funeral ceremonies in accordance with rule 4 of the awarding regulations drawn up by Count von Wartenberg of the document sealed with the seal of King Friedrich I. Canon Eleonore Lucie von Stockhausen (1683-1750) was one of the first nuns who had to return the mark of grace given to them on entry due to marriage . She lived in the Jenastift from 1703 to 1706 and married the Prussian Minister Friedrich von Görne in Berlin. At the festive divine service in Halle Cathedral on the occasion of its introduction in 1703, the abbess wore a gold and white enamelled star on a purple ribbon and the other conventual women on a red ribbon that hung down from the right shoulder to the left - as it appeared in the monastery coat of arms, to differentiate yourself from other women. On the occasion of the visit of the imperial couple on September 6th, 1903 in Halle, the guests of honor were invited in front of the town hall, including a delegation of the noble ladies from the Jenai'schen Fräuleinstift , about the handing of the " honorary drink " to Wilhelm II by the mayor, Gustav Staude and to present Her Majesty Auguste Victoria with a bouquet of flowers. The canons, like Auguste Viktoria, were dressed entirely in white and wore the prescribed ribbon with the royal Prussian protection and mercy mark around their necks and shoulders. The Halle photographer Fritz Müller (* 1860; † 1923), who was awarded at the Paris World Exhibition in 1900 , captured the gift of the "honorary drink" to Wilhelm II as well as the imperial couple, their entourage and the guests of honor sitting together in an open carriage. The film production company Deutsche Bioscop , Berlin, had made a documentary film in 1903 under the title “Mayor of Halle presents SM Kaiser Wilhelm II with the honorary drink”.

In 1903, when the imperial couple visited Halle, only six of the ten planned places with their own apartments for canons, including the abbess, were occupied in the Halle monastery building, Rathausstrasse 15: Auguste von Jena (1832–1913), abbess, 71 years old; Ida von Breitenbach (1833–1907), 70 years old; Melanie von Dresky (1833–1924), 70 years old; Ottilie von Flotow (1833–1915), 70 years; Therese von Jena (1839–1921), 64 years; Bourgeois canoness Louise Pergande (1839–1919), 64 years old, whose mother Maria was born von der Gablenz ; Louise von Seelhorst (1848–1913), 53 years old; Pauline (nickname Paula ) Freiin von Ledebur (1854–1938). Although the baroness v. Ledebur was the youngest canoness at the age of 49 in 1903, when she visited the emperor in Halle, she was considered a senior citizen from 1888 because of her long stay in Jenastift . Her activities included leading the convents, which usually take place twice a year, and - as with the Abbess Auguste v. Jena  - such representational tasks in which the abbess and the elderly had to wear the protection and mercy mark . In 1903 there were three other aristocratic women among the conventual women - without their own apartment in Jenastift: Gisela v. Jena (* 1856; † 1915); Elsbeth (first name: Else ) v. Gronefeld (1846–1913) and Countess Elisabeth v. Herzberg (1836-1909). The conventual Gisela von Jena is listed in the Halle address book for 1908 as a resident of the v. Jena'schen Fräuleinstifts in the Rathausstrasse 15 mentioned for the first time. Gisela v. Jena and Therese v. Jena both lived on the second floor of the monastery building, while the abbess Auguste v. Jena in the I. owned her home. In a dissertation defended in 2009 at the Philosophical Faculty of the Martin Luther University Halle-Wittenberg , Gisela v. For the years from 1914 to her death in 1915, Jena was given the note Precistin as abbess , a canon appointed and cared for at the request of the Prussian Queen.

After the dissolution of the monarchy in 1918, the canons received a silver necklace with a cross when they entered the noble fräuleinstift. All four ends of this cross were shaped like a three-leaf clover, which in the symbolic language is an old symbol of the Trinity for the Father, Son and Holy Spirit . The canon Erna von Abendroth , who became a conventual in 1938 when she was still living in Dresden to look after her blind mother, Margarethe, née von Hagen , continued to wear this cross necklace when she was working at the Werner School of the German Red Cross worked for the German Red Cross in Göttingen and received foreign colleagues in 1950.

Board of Trustees and Legal Adviser

The v. Jenasche Fräuleinstift has been advised by Protestant preachers and a lawyer since it was founded. The two-person board of trustees included B. in the year 1838 the 1st and 2nd cathedral preacher of Halle Cathedral August Rienäcker and Ludwig Gottfried Blanc as curators. In addition, the Halle judiciary Friedrich August Dryander came for legal advice when Wilhelmine von Lichnowsky was the abbess of the Freiweltliche noble von Jena'sches Fräuleinstift (term of office 1830–1850).
