Johannes (* around 1280; † around 1350) was the landowner in Hohenaspe and the third monastery provost of Uetersen .

Life

Johannes was born in Hohenaspe around 1280 and was first mentioned in 1315 as "Cappellanus noster" in a document from Count Johann von Holstein . In 1328 he called himself "Dei gratia praepositus". He owned 1½ Hufen arable land in Hohenaspe. He gave this property as a gift to his sister on April 20, 1343 on the condition that, after her death, the property would be transferred to the Uetersen monastery, which at that time was a Cistercian monastery. On January 7, 1344, Provost Johannes bought the Hollenbek estate from Gottschalk von Velden along with his son Gottschalk and his nephews Heinrich and Henneke with the consent of the nuns of the women's monastery . After 1345 it is mentioned several times in documents. He probably died in 1350 in Uetersen Monastery.
