Friedrich I of Bremen
Friedrich I (* unknown; † January 29, 1123 ) was Archbishop of the Archdiocese of Bremen in the 12th century .
Archbishop Friedrich I was the successor to Humbert of Bremen, who died in 1104. Nothing is known about his life before he took office. Its origin from a Bremen ministerial family, the Schulte or the von der Lühe from the old country are called, is doubted in recent research.
Since he never received the pallium during his entire 19-year term in office , his origin is believed to be from the environment of Henry IV .
After Adalbert's attempts to establish a patriarchate of the north with the establishment of the Archdiocese of Lund had failed, he concentrated on internal land development. In 1113 he issued the first document with which he left marshland to Dutch settlers for reclamation and thus gave the prelude to elder colonization . This, continued by his successors, spread across the Weser and Elbe marshes to Hamburg .
After his death in 1123 he was buried in Bremen .
