Life

Hinrich Stammel's exact life dates are not known. He began his studies after Michaelis in 1428 at the University of Rostock , where the majority of his successors in the office of Bergen secretary were to be trained in the future. For the year 1448 he is proven as secretary of the Hanseatic office on Bryggen in Bergen. In a memorandum of the mountain drivers in the office from 1451, the recording of a complaint from 1448 to King Christoph III. referred to by Denmark in a book kept by him. This makes him the first traditional secretary of the office in Bergen. His successor in Bergen in 1449 was the secretary Christian von Geren , with whom the rich chronicle of the mountain drivers began. Accordingly, Hinrich Stammel will have moved to Bruges in 1449, where he was first documented as secretary of the Hanseatic Office in Bruges in March 1450.

The Magister Jakob Raven also became secretary of both offices 100 years later.
