mayor

A magister civium (mayor) is first recorded in Heilbronn in 1314. The equal constitution of Emperor Charles IV from 1371 meant that the council, consisting of 13 patricians as well as 13 merchants and craftsmen, each elected two mayors from among its members, who held office together. Their names have only been passed down completely from the middle of the 15th century. With the Carolingian order of Emperor Charles V of 1552, the 15-member Inner Council, made up of patricians, received sole power. Its members gradually advanced to the position of mayor in terms of seniority. The three mayors alternated in chairmanship and leadership.

As a result, the city parliament and the mayor were appointed by the king in the future . From 1822 onwards, the people of Heilbronn elect their own local council, which in future will be headed by the city council. The title of Lord Mayor was not reassigned until 1874 by King Karl I of Württemberg to Karl Wüst , who had been the city schoolboy since 1869.
