Friedrich II. Ellinger
Friedrich Ellinger († 1217 ) was Friedrich II. Provost of the monastery of Berchtesgaden from 1211 until his death .
Friedrich managed to balance a conflict between the monastery and the Salzburg cathedral chapter . As early as 1198 there was a settlement that was advantageous for the Salzburg people, in which three equal shares of the shares in the Tuval salt camp went to the archbishop , the Salzburg cathedral monastery and Berchtesgaden. Salzburg was not satisfied with this, however, and shortly thereafter also raised claims for the forest and the logging in the forests in the north-east of the Berchtesgadener Land. In truth, it was about new ownership claims by shifting the previous boundaries.
Friedrich's negotiating skills could not prevent the canons from being allowed to cut wood for salt boiling on both sides of the Berchtesgadener Ache as far as Schellenberg from 1211 , but at least the property rights were preserved insofar as the Salzburg cathedral chapter received two gold pieces a year for this, and the archbishop himself a talent had to pay the Berchtesgaden Abbey.
On the other hand, the call to the crusade during the Lateran Council in 1215 (according to the source 1216), which he absolutely wanted to follow, ended tragically for Friedrich . Under the condition that only the twentieth part of the monastery’s income could be used for this purpose, Friedrich set off for Italy with the Salzburg cathedral provost Albert in May 1217 to sail from Brindisi to Acre for the "salvation of Palestine" . There are two versions of his death: according to the one, he died in Brindisi, according to the second, he drowned together with the Salzburg cathedral provost and others near Damiette in the Nile .
