Hallinger (Berchtesgadener Land)

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A Hallinger ( Latin salinarius ) headed the Salt Office of the Berchtesgadener Land from 1286 to probably 1795 .

The Hallinger was usually commissioned or elected by the Berchtesgaden monastery as its "most important administrative officer" . The monastery pen was not least because of its salt production in 1380 to Reichsprälatur to and 1559-1803 direct imperial Berchtesgaden Provostry been raised and the Berchtesgaden country a small but independent principality .

The first verifiable Hallinger named Henricus probably still worked in Berchtesgaden from 1286 to 1292 as the founding place and seat of the monastery monastery. From 1292, beginning with Ulricus, the Hallingers headed the Salt Office in Schellenberg , the second main town of the monastery. While the first two mentioned were demonstrably lay people, the Hallinger was chosen from the ranks of the Augustinian canons within the monastery from the "late Middle Ages " . First mentioned from 1334, the Hall Inger was mostly in personal union a "princely market Judge", which, however, only the " low jurisdiction exercised".

Despite its salt income, the monastery monastery had very high debts for many years, which is why even the provost himself had to take over the office on behalf of the Prince Archbishopric of Salzburg in order to "pay homage" to the archbishop for the saline Schellenberg pledged to him as "his Hallinger". Only Ulrich II. Pernauer († March 14, 1495) was given the upcoming election as prelates and provost of the monastery pen Berchtesgaden not swear more than "Salzburg Hallinger" but appointed during his reign from its own ranks Jörg Sewer and from 1491 Pernauers successor Balthasar Hirschauer († 1508) in Hallingern. (It was not until 1556 that Wolfgang II. Griesstätter zu Haslach , who three years later was the first to be promoted to prince provost , succeeded in repaying the remainder of a debt burden that had increased again and again since 1389, thus 167 years, and to release Schellenberg from the Salzburg pledge The signed contract with the participation of Eberhard II. von Hirnheim as Bishop of Eichstätt is known as the "Eichstätter Compromise" and was also understood as a peace treaty with Salzburg.)

Schellenberg remained the seat of the Salt Office in the Berchtesgadener Land for centuries. It was only in the course of the last forced pledging of the Schellenberg and Frauenreuth salt works to the Electorate of Bavaria that the seat of the Salt Office was established as the Electoral Bavarian Main Salt Office in Adelsheim Castle in Berchtesgaden from 1795 .

After secularization , and the associated incorporation of the Berchtesgadener Land into the Kingdom of Bavaria from 1810 , the seat of the salt office remained in Berchtesgaden as the first of seven "main salt offices", which was no longer a Hallinger, but a royal Bavarian one "Inspector" board. For the period from 1822 to 1864, the main salt office in Berchtesgaden used (almost) all buildings of the Franciscan monastery in Berchtesgaden .
