Dietrich von Rinteln
Thidericus de Rintelen (also: Dietrich or Diedericus de Rintelen or von Rinteln ) (* in the 13th century; † February 22, 1321) came from the von Rinteln family . In the Middle Ages he was councilor and city governor of Hanover. As a captain he was responsible for the Hanoverian district around the old Leinstrasse . His widow Ghese (= Gertrud ) and his two sons Johannes and Adolf transferred an annual pension from a meadow near Ricklingen to the St. Nikolai Hospital on August 10, 1329 .
Grave slab
The listed grave slab of Dietrich von Rinteln shows the deceased in an incised drawing painted with reddish paint in a long, cloak-like coat. In front of his coat he wears his coat of arms with the three roses on a pole.
The inscription in capital letters reads:
"+ ANNO D [OMI] NI M CCC XXI OBIIT IN CATHEDRA S [AN] C [T] I PETRI AP [OSTO] LI THIDERICVS DE RINTELEN ORATE PRO EO +"
The stone slab was originally located inside the church of the Minorite monastery in Leinstraße . When the church was converted into a castle church , the slab was walled in near the new church entrance.
After the destruction caused by the air raids on Hanover in World War II and the conversion of the Leineschloss into the Lower Saxony state parliament , the grave slab was moved to its current location in the Kreuzkirche during the years of reconstruction .
