from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Heinrich Wilhelm Julius Martin Romberg (born April 5, 1857 in Perlin ; † August 27, 1943 ) was a German Evangelical Lutheran clergyman.

Life

Romberg came from a Mecklenburg pastor dynasty that was largely related to the Romberg family of musicians . He was a son of the pastor and prepositus Hermann Romberg (1821-1887) in Kalkhorst and his wife Bertha Clara Therese, geb. Fisherman. Bernhard became court music director of his brothers at the grand ducal court in Schwerin ; Karl August (born December 6, 1868) and Friedrich Franz (born January 22, 1870; † April 20, 1949 in Dassow ) also became pastors. Carl Heinrich Romberg was his uncle.

He attended the Gymnasium Fridericianum Schwerin until he graduated from high school in Easter 1879 and studied Protestant theology at the University of Rostock , the University of Erlangen and, from the winter semester of 1880, back in Rostock. In Erlangen he became a member of the CStV Uttenruthia Erlangen in the summer of 1880 . In 1883 he passed his first ( pro licentia concionandi ) and in 1886 his second ( pro ministerio ) theological exam. He was first vice-rector in Röbel and rector in Sternberg and received his first pastor in 1886 as second pastor of the Johanneskirche (Dömitz) and pastor of the penitentiary and fortress church in the fortress Dömitz . In 1894 he became a pastor in Warnkenhagen . In 1897 he came second pastor to the Church of St. Nikolai (Schelfkirche) Schwerin . In 1917 he became the first pastor and provost here .

Romberg taught at the seminary in Schwerin and was a member of the theological examination commission from 1917. He gave numerous lectures, some of which he had published at the Schwerin publishing house, Bahn. On the anniversary of the Reformation in 1917, the Theological Faculty of the University of Rostock awarded him an honorary doctorate .

After he lost the First World War , which he supported in lectures and sermons and in which he lost a son, Romberg had himself transferred to Kalkhorst in 1920 for health reasons. From January 1921 he was also provost of the Klützer Circle, the churches in Klützer Winkel . In January 1933 he was retired.

He had been married to Helene von Bülow (1865–1920) from the Diedrichshagen house since 1886 . The couple had three sons and two daughters. The son Hermann (* 1888) died in 1916 in English captivity during the First World War; Bernhard (1889-1947) became a pastor in Teterow , belonged to the Confessing Church and was therefore prevented from exercising his office in 1935 and arrested in 1937, and Martin (1903-1945) was a pastor in Dobbertin Monastery from 1933 to 1944 . Drafted in 1939, he was a division pastor in Russia and has been missing since 1945. The two daughters became teachers: Maria (1896–1947) in Wismar and Schönberg (Mecklenburg) , Therese (1898–1944) in Neukloster .
