Cathedral Chapter 1803

The cathedral chapter basically consisted of 30 canons , most of whom had been Lutheran since the Reformation. However, up to four Catholics were admitted who were designated as Catholicus . According to Eduard Vehse, it was divided into ten Panistae , the Integrati , the Semi-Integrati , the Canonici in herbis and four Distincti , which went through the aforementioned classification. The Panistae received the highest endowed benefices, while those newly admitted entered the lowest rank as Canonici in herbis , candidates. In order to have the chance to rise far enough at all, most of the members were accepted as early as possible when they were seven years old. Admitted in later years of life acted as placeholders in order to give up in favor of younger family members at the appropriate time. Almost only nobles were accepted. The distinctions were determined by the prince-bishop.

The election of the cathedral provost took place alternately by the Lübeck council and the cathedral chapter. The cathedral props elected by the Lübeck council did not belong to the cathedral chapter; During these terms of office, the cathedral dean also took on the external representation of the chapter. The last cathedral provost and Syndicus Carl Henrich Dreyer elected by the Lübeck council in 1761 had died in 1802 in the previous year.

The two Livonisten- prebends at the Lübeck cathedral chapter were named after its founder, the Domdekan John Livo († 1292) and entitled only to income but not to sit and vote in the chapter.
