Life

Henning Osthusen began his law studies at the University of Erfurt in the summer of 1487 and completed his studies with a master's degree. From 1496 to 1513 he worked first as the second council secretary, then as a protonotary in Lübeck. A trip from Osthusen to Augsburg is reflected in the books of the long-distance trader Godart Wigerinck . He was dismissed from the secretarial service at his own request, because he had meanwhile become canon at Lübeck Cathedral . In 1522, according to the letters to the Lübeck merchant Mathias Mulich, he was longer in Nuremberg on official city matters . In 1524 he was handed down as provost in the Lübeck cathedral chapter. His successor as protonotary of the city of Lübeck, Johannes Rode , became canon in Lübeck. Henning Osthusen was the nephew of the Lübeck Syndicus Johannes Osthusen .
