Map of the Principality of Lüneburg by Johannes Mellinger from 1593

This list shows all the ordinances of the Principality of Lüneburg that were issued up to the end of the Principality of Lüneburg's independence in 1705. The first written ordinance dates from 1510, when Duke Heinrich the Middle laid down the organization of the court administration in court rules. In the 16th and 17th centuries a number of ordinances were issued, most of which were of a programmatic nature. The reason for the decree was partly the desolate financial situation of the principality, the aim in these cases was to limit the expenses of the court, for example. In some cases, the ordinances also stipulated concessions to the landscape , which it had been granted in return for financial aid to the rulers.
