Friedrich von Walle

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Friedrich von Walle , also Frederik van Walle (*?; † after 1410 ), mentioned in a document 1367 to 1410, was Bremen councilor from 1371 and before 1395 to 1410 (?) Bremen mayor .

Life

Friedrich von Walle married a daughter of the head of the St.-Jürgen-Gasthaus Ludwig Buck, who last appeared in the sources in 1356. On December 13, 1367, Friedrich von Walle donated a memorial to him in the St. Ansgarikirche . In 1401 Friedrich had at least three sons named Friedrich, Hermen and Hinrich. He himself became head of the inn in 1374 and in 1378, together with Arnold Doneldey (also the author of a pharmacopoeia ), procurator of the St. Jürgen Hospital. Together with Johann Brand and Heinrich von Haren, he donated two altars in a chapel in the cathedral in 1388 .

Like almost all councilors, Friedrich von Walle was also a landowner outside the city of Bremen, but also in the area near the city. He owned land on the Doventor, as well as between the Paulskloster and the town - he sold the latter in 1400.

At the same time, in his role as mayor, he notarized some of the extensive pledges to Bremen. Archbishop Otto pledged the tithe of Hasenbüren to the city , in addition in the Wetterung and in Lehe , as well as large areas of land in the Weser region for a total of 1,000 marks.

In view of the growing business of the Bremen council , it was decided in 1395 to create a council book, the council memorial book . It is said there that the mayor Friedrich von Walle decided with his councilors. This included the damage that the Vitalienbrüder had caused in 1397, but also letters of protection, documents, contracts, regulations for mayors and councilors, and everything that could be of importance for the city. The transition from the civil register, which was set up in 1289 and initially only recorded the newly admitted citizens, took place slowly. The civil register increasingly took notes that went beyond its original scope. The matriculation began already in 1282 and continued until 1519, but next to it can be found soon supplements, such as the law of 1296 relating to the exploitation of citizenship, later some numbers to the victims of the Black Death of 1350. Prior to 1300 was the so-called Nequambuch separated , in which cases of robbery and other offenses were recorded along with sentences.
