Master salt

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Master salt was a term for salt transport with a certain number of salt ships and precise loading of salt . Loading of citizens of Laufen , who were called pavers, they handed over the freight to the Neufergen . The pavers were organized as a cooperative and legally appointed by the archbishop .

The cargo was called Hallfahrt and it was exactly 227 loads , almost 14 tons . Before 1550, 27 hall trips with 233 loads were about 400 tons of salt. According to other information, 30 departing ships corresponded to a master salt . The number of ships for master salt was differentiated by the pre-coating , i.e. the first ten ships, and the post-coating , the last ten ships. There is evidence that a master salt went to Obernberg .
