Conrad IV. Tanner

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Konrad Tanner († 1333 ) was Konrad IV. From 1317 to 1333 provost of the monastery monastery Berchtesgaden .

He came from the family of Tanner zu Altentann in the Neumarkt district court, which, despite numerous fiefs in Salzburg, was always "inclined" towards Bavaria. Tanner was considered zealots against "spiritual and temporal infirmities" and should because of its "excessive rigor and orthodoxy" that "displeasure" of his canons as well as the country Assen (provinciales) have "drawn to the detriment of the church." It was only thanks to papal support that he maintained himself as provost until his death in 1333.

As Provost Konrad IV of the Berchtesgaden monastery, Tanner was still subject to the metropolitan authority of the Archdiocese of Salzburg . It was not until 1455 that the monastery was able to get rid of it and was then subordinate to the Pope in spiritual matters. But the secular independence of the Stiftspropstei began to manifest itself as early as 1294 through the acquisition of blood jurisdiction for serious offenses. In 1313, every tenth salt ship on the Salzach or Inn came from Berchtesgaden.

The decades of salt errors between the monastery monastery and the archbishopric of Salzburg also determined Tanner's reign, because - according to the historian Koch-Sternfeld - in 1306 "a bunch of Berchtesgaden people suddenly fell out of the archbishopric on the Untersberg and committed great violence". His predecessor Eberhard Sachs then “restored calm and order and peace”. But in 1332 the citizens of Hallein attacked the Schellenberg salt pans belonging to the provost and overturned Berchtesgaden salt wagons. In response to Tanner's complaints, the Archbishop of Salzburg , Friedrich III. admitted that from now on the production and export of the Schellenberger salt through the area of ​​the archbishopric may proceed unhindered.

Tanner's tombstone can be found as a floor slab at the main entrance of the Berchtesgaden collegiate church .
