Life

The merchant Marquard Schutte was a member of the Lübeck Schonenfahrer and in 1410 their senior man . In the course of the civil unrest at the beginning of the 15th century, he became a member of the citizens' committee of the 1960s and was one of the rebellious spokesmen against the Lübeck council as early as 1406. In 1408, the year the Old Council was expelled, he was elected to the Citizens' Finance Committee. In 1409 he represented the New Council in the process with the Old Council before the Imperial Court of Justice in Heidelberg. In 1413 he was elected councilor of the New Council, to which he belonged until the return of the Old Council in 1416. In May 1416, in the run-up to his return, he led the negotiations for an understanding between the council parties for the New Council. Also in 1416 he traveled to King Erik VII of Denmark to justify himself before him. Erik VII initially imprisoned him. In 1417 he then traveled with Johann Growe and Hinrich Schönenberg to King Sigismund , in order to atone for further punishment before him. In wills of Lübeck citizens he is listed several times as guardian between 1405 and 1417 .

Schutte was the bourgeois ruler in 1411/1412 and ruler of the Petrikirche as councilor from 1413 . He lived first at Fischstrasse 34, then at Königstrasse 75 .
