Gottfried von Padberg

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Gottfried von Padberg (partly also Gottfried von Scharfenberg , as Abbot Gottfried II ) († May 25, 1343 ) was abbot of the Grafschaft monastery from 1325 to 1343 .

Life

He came from the Padberg family from the Scharfenberg branch and was the brother of Hermann and Johann von Scharfenberg.

He was first provost of the Augustinian convent in Küstelberg . He is mentioned as such in 1292. He was the driving force behind the relocation of the monastery to Glindfeld in 1297 . There, too, he exercised the post of provost. He is mentioned in an alms letter that all monasteries in Westphalia and the neighboring areas have issued for the purpose of building a new church. In 1309 the squire Conrad Schlechtrieme donated several properties to the monastery. A year later the von Scharfenberg sold one of their main farms with the associated farms to the provost.

After that he was abbot of Kloster Grafschaft. Generally the beginning of his abbey is dated to 1325. If one follows the description of Karl Hopf he left the mill there to the town of Schmallenberg as early as 1323 . In the corresponding document, however, there is no mention of an abbot Gottfried. The certificate was sealed by a Gottfried Propst zu Wormbach .

Gottfried is mentioned as abbot in various documents. In 1325 it is documented that he gave the town of Attendorn a fiefdom. In 1326 he was present as a witness when his brothers handed over a farm to the Bredelar monastery for a memorial foundation. In his time, the noblemen von Grafschaft 1332 and Johann II von Bilstein donated memories in 1335. In 1337 Johann II von Grafschaft sold a farm in Grafschaft to the monastery. He also instructed the monastery to receive a pension from a farm.
