Superordinate bodies

The diocese of Speyer was divided into four archdeaconates , which in turn were divided into three to five regional chapters. The rural chapter of Vaihingen, together with the rural chapter of Weil der Stadt and the rural chapter of Grüningen, belonged to the Archdeaconate of Trinity , which was reserved for the “ Provost of All Saints ”. The full name of this collegiate foundation was “St. Trinitatis ac Omnium Sanctorum “Its collegiate church in Speyer is said to have been built by Bishop Sigebodo (in office from 1038 to 1051) southwest of the Speyer Cathedral in a corner of the city ​​wall .

Land chapter as middle level

The spiritual center of the rural or rural chapter was the Vaihinger Peterskirche , which served as a parish church in front of the new town church. Today the Peterskirche houses the municipal museum. Your nave is used as an exhibition, concert and lecture hall.

The country chapter was presided over by a dean, mostly the Vaihingen parish priest, whose competencies increased from the 13th century onwards because the archdeacons of Speyer first had to perform higher tasks in the diocese administration and in the imperial chancellery and were later disempowered.

After the Reformation was finally implemented in the Duchy of Württemberg, the Speyr diocese had to give up its districts in Württemberg. The land chapter was dissolved and Vaihingen was the seat of an evangelical special superintendent , whose district expanded after Markgröningen was replaced by Ludwigsburg in 1812 .
