Hermann Poling
Hermann Poling ( bl. 1402 - after 1416) was a German goldsmith and mayor of the Hanseatic city of Lübeck.
Life
Hermann Poling was the son of the Lübeck metalworker Nikolaus Poling. In the course of the civil unrest in Lübeck at the beginning of the 15th century, the goldsmith Poling was appointed one of the city's mayors by the New Council in 1413 after the old council was driven out . Before 1416, he is listed as guardian in two cases in the wills of citizens of Lübeck . In 1416 he took part in the craftsmen uprisings directed against it in advance of the return of the old council to the city. Like Heyno Sobbe , he was arrested at the suggestion of the Royal Envoy Jakob von Zedlitz , who was sent to Lübeck by King Sigismund , but, unlike his professional colleague, he was not executed but expelled from the city. On June 6, 1416, he committed an original feud . After first going to Perleberg , where the people of Lübeck also demanded his expulsion, he sought protection at the court of Margrave Friedrich I of Brandenburg. He unsuccessfully advocated Poling's return to Lübeck at the Lübeck Council .
Poling lived in Lübeck from 1402 to 1404 at Schüsselbuden 4, then at Hüxstraße 52 and from 1409 until his expulsion at Königstraße 99 .
