13th Century
Since 1216 there was a joint council of the united Hamburg old and new town (council in the new town first proven in 1195). The existence of a mayor's office has been proven since 1264. The council initially elected two mayors, and since 1350 regularly four (temporarily five) mayors, two of whom were in charge of official affairs on an annual basis (change of office usually to / until Kathedra Petri ). This system with the two “word-keeping” or ruling or presiding mayors essentially existed until the constitution of 1860.

1860-1920
The constitution, newly established in 1860, defines the terms first and second mayor for the above members of the Senate - now officially no longer called the Council. These have since been elected by the citizenship, which has now also partly emerged from elections, and are no longer co-opted by the existing Senate as before . As before, they were senators for life. (See also: Hamburg Senate 1861–1919 )
Within the Senate, a decision was made annually as to who should head it first ( Primus inter pares ) and Second Mayor. With a few exceptions, the Senate regularly elected the three oldest legally trained senators to these offices, according to the following pattern:
year | 1st Mayor | 2nd Mayor | "Rest year" |
---|---|---|---|
1 | Senator A. | Senator B | Senator C |
2 | Senator B | Senator C | Senator A. |
3 | Senator C | Senator A. | Senator B |
4th | Senator A. | Senator B | Senator C |
Weimar Republic
see also Hamburg Senate 1919–1933
In November 1918 the Senate and the citizenship were deposed by the Workers 'and Soldiers' Council (under Heinrich Laufenberg , later Karl Hense ), but shortly thereafter reinstated under veto rights. The Senate was now dependent on the trust of the citizens. The first and second mayors were still elected by the Senate for one year as President and his deputy, but re-election was permitted. At times there was a minority or executive senate.

National Socialism
see also Hamburg Senate under National Socialism
On March 8, 1933, Carl Vincent Krogmann , NSDAP , was elected First Mayor. On May 18, the Reich Governor Karl Kaufmann redefined the term "Governing Mayor". On July 29, 1936, businessman Vincent Krogmann deposed and was commissioned to run the state government himself. The Nazi Senate, which had already been reduced in size and had only limited powers, was completely dissolved.

Occupation time
The first mayor after the end of the Second World War , Rudolf Petersen, was appointed by the British city commander Colonel Armytage. Petersen argued that he lacked practical political experience. At his request, Adolph Schönfelder was appointed second mayor. The British occupying power wanted to call the highest office of Hamburg Lord Mayor first, as in other German cities. The not yet appointed Petersen defended himself successfully against this designation, as it did not fit the Hamburg tradition.
First Mayor
- Rudolf Petersen (independent, later CDU ): May 15, 1945 - November 15, 1946
Second mayor
- Adolph Schönfelder , SPD : June 6, 1945 - November 15, 1946
Occupation and Federal Republic of Germany
Even during the occupation, a provisional constitution was drawn up (by the appointed citizenship and senate) and a citizenship was freely elected in 1946. The Senate elected on November 15, 1946, constituted itself on November 19 and elected Max Brauer as First Mayor and President of the Senate. In accordance with the old constitution, the Senate was elected or supplemented by senators and the mayor (for one year if re-elected) by the Senate itself.
Following a comprehensive constitutional reform, the First Mayor has been directly elected by the citizens since 1997. In addition, his term of office ends with the meeting of a new citizenship. The second mayor is usually appointed by the first mayor along with the entire senate and only needs to be confirmed by the city council.
