Konrad II (Berchtesgaden)

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Konrad († 1252 ) was an Augustinian canon and, as Konrad II, was provost of the Berchtesgaden monastery in 1252 .

Konrad was cellar master of the Berchtesgaden monastery as early as 1220 and later still in the service of the Altenhohenau monastery . Already “for years” he was only provost of the monastery of Berchtesgaden for a few months in 1252 (according to Brugger at the turn of the year 1252 and 1253) until his death. According to Koch-Sternfeld, he was elected at a time when a solar eclipse “terrified the people, Archbishop Philipp was fighting in Steyer and Carinthia, Emperor Friedrich II died of poison and his son Conrad IV with Wilhelm von Holland was around Reich crown argued. "

He thus benefited only briefly from the "freedom letter" issued by Emperor Friedrich Barbarossa in 1156 , who granted the Berchtesgaden monastery monastery forest sovereignty, as well as from the unauthorized expansion of this "golden bull" in 1180 by his predecessor, Provost Friedrich I, to include the freedom to mine salt and metal. Thanks to the “Magna Charta of the Berchtesgaden Regional Authority”, which has been in effect since 1194, he was also able to exercise not only lower but also higher jurisdiction as sovereign and court ruler . And since 1209 was the Berchtesgaden provosts by Pope Innocent III. the right of free jurisdiction over all lay people within the papal area of immunity has been confirmed. The negotiating skills of predecessors such as Friedrich II could not prevent the canons from being allowed to boil wood on both sides of the Berchtesgadener Ache as far as Schellenberg from 1211 , but at least the property rights were preserved insofar as the Salzburg cathedral chapter annually received two gold pieces Archbishop himself had a talent to pay to the Berchtesgaden Abbey.
