Joachim Dobbin

Joachim Dobbin (* 1534 in Lübeck ; † April 22, 1614 ibid) was a German Evangelical Lutheran clergyman, chief pastor at Lübeck Cathedral and senior at the Ministry of Spiritual Affairs .

Life

Joachim Dobbin was the son of a barber from Lübeck . After visiting the Katharineum , he studied at the University of Rostock from 1553 . In 1555 he went, together with his father (!) Heinrich and his brother Heinrich, to the University of Wittenberg , where he was still a student of Philipp Melanchthon . In 1558 he was seriously wounded here by his Famulus Wenceslaus Richter from Silesia . After his recovery and graduation as a Magister in the summer of 1560, he became rector of the Nicolai School in Flensburg and in 1566 founding rector of today's old grammar school .

Plague cross from 1598

In December 1568 he was appointed preacher at the Marienkirche in Lübeck . In 1588 he moved to the cathedral as (main) pastor. He reported on the Lübeck plague epidemic in 1597 with 7,000 victims (about a third of the population of Lübeck), of which the plague cross from 1598 on St. Lorenz Church still commemorates. In the Reiser unrest in 1599 he sided with the autocratic mayor Gotthard V. von Hoeveln and against the concerns of the citizens led by Heinrich Reiser , which he branded as rebellion against the authorities appointed by God .

1602 Dobbin also became a senior in the Ministry of Spirituality. Since the office of superintendent had been vacant since the death of Andreas Pouchenius in 1600 , Dobbin held office until the appointment of Georg Stampelius in 1611 as chief clergyman of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Lübeck .

About the engagement of his daughter Catharina to the Lutheran Canon Bartold Hinze († 1627) there was an unusual argument in 1600. Some of his counterparts thought it unseemly that possession of canonicals was a diabolical estate and demanded that Dobbins be dismissed. The cathedral dean Ludwig Pincier , married to Hinze's sister, then obtained expert opinions from the theological faculty of the University of Marburg , from the theological and legal faculty of the University of Leipzig and from the theological and legal faculty in Wittenberg. The answer came back from all of them that they could by no means approve of such horrible speeches, as if a canon was a devil's child, but rather his position cereris paribus for a position pleasing to God, hence also the zeal, for the sake of such marriage, a preacher of his Wanting to rob an office and a canon of his canonical status for untimely and such distinguished people recognized as ungodly.

Hertzig's Walk (1908)

He was the owner of Hertzigs Gang in the Marlesgrube 17, which he had inherited in 1575.

No epitaph or memorial image has survived, but there are records in the cathedral's pastors' book . His successor as cathedral pastor was the previous deacon (2nd pastor) Matthias Crumbtinger .
