Sachsen-Lauenburg after the comparison between Lübeck and Kurhannover (1747) up to the Danish period around 1848

The Möllner Pertinenzien were the subject-matter of a dispute between the in personal union with Britain standing electorate of Hanover and the Hanseatic city of Lübeck , which in 1747 by a comparison in Hanover was settled.

Pledging of Mölln

The town and the Vogtei Mölln were originally central parts of the north Elbe area of ​​the small duchy of Saxony-Lauenburg , whose Ascanian rulers had been in constant financial need since the Middle Ages. So it happened that the city and bailiwick of Mölln was pledged to the Hanseatic City of Lübeck from 1359 until a Reich Chamber Court judgment in 1683, although the court proceedings for restitution had been pending since 1571.

With the decision of the Reich Chamber Court, new dispute broke out on several points. The court had initially only ruled the return of the city, but not the Bailiwick. The most important point of contention was certainly the determination of the amount of money that was necessary to release the deposit. The value of money had changed massively over the centuries. But there was also a bitter dispute over the extent of the territory to be returned, including accessories ( pertinence ) such as the buildings standing up, as Lübeck had numerous other towns to secure its trade routes, the long-distance trade routes through Lauenburg and the Stecknitz Canal during the time it was pledged to Mölln Acquired as exclaves in Sachsen-Lauenburg , which have now also been demanded back. On October 15, 1683, the citizens of Mölln were once again subordinated to Duke Julius Franz von Sachsen-Lauenburg as subjects by way of the Reich execution .

The dispute was initially discontinued after the dukes of Saxony-Lauenburg died out in the male line in 1689. Was initially priority inheritance dispute of the neighbors, who by the Hamburger comparison (1693) in favor of just forming Electorate Brunswick-Lüneburg was decided

However, King George I of Great Britain, as Elector of Hanover in 1722, remembered the inherited claims of the Saxon-Lauenburgers and began to enforce them. After lengthy negotiations, some of which were also carried out in the nearby Steinhorst Office and in Ritzerau , Lübeck also renounced ten villages in the vicinity of the city of Mölln, but kept twenty other villages as exclaves in its state property. The Lübeckers were directly involved in these negotiations through councilors as envoys. In the final phase, the main burden of the negotiations lay with Councilor Philipp Caspar Lamprecht . Baron Friedrich Christian von Albedyll and Privy Councilor David Georg Strube negotiated on the Hanoverian side . With his writings, the Hanoverian Secret Archives Councilor Johann Gottfried von Miere , who worked in the background, played a significant role in the outcome of the proceedings . Lübeck was represented before the Reich Chamber of Commerce in Wetzlar by his Syndicus Hermann Georg Krohn . The settlement settlement was made for Lübeck by Lamprecht and the later mayors Johann Friedrich Carstens and Daniel Haecks in 1747. The paraphe in Hanover took place on January 30, 1747. The Lübeckers signed on February 4, 1747 and King Georg II then approved on February 21 Palace of St James . The comparison was only fully implemented after detailed border determinations in 1759. These borders then existed until the Greater Hamburg Law came into force in 1937.
