Peter Bopparder

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Peter Bopparder (* around 1470 in Valwig ; † around 1538 in Karden ) was a dean of the collegiate monastery St. Castor (Karden) .

Life

Peter Bopparder ( Bopperter ) von Valwig studied in Cologne in 1485 and acquired the academic degree of Baccalaureus at the Trier Artist Faculty in 1491 . From 1505 he is documented for the first time as a canon at St. Castor Abbey in Karden. After the successful election as the new dean by the chapter on May 16, 1532, the result was the Archbishop of Trier Johann III. von Metzenhausen , to whom Peter Bopparder made his obedience oath on July 6, 1532 (from Latin oboedentia "obedience").

Bopparder had a biological son named Peter Bopparder von Karden (born 1530), who was named as a canon in Karden on the Moselle for 1551. In 1535, Bopparder led a legal dispute with his chapter about the settlement of costs for a confirmation in office. Since the dispute occurred during the term of office of Pope Clement VII , it is assumed that it was the legal consequences of the papal awarding of the deanery to Hermann Fomelen. However, the dispute was later settled by a papal notary who had acted as an arbitrator. Bopparder died, the exact date of his death has not been recorded, probably around the turn of the year 1538/39.

Foundations

Peter Bopparder donated anniversaries for the canon and custodian of Karden Friedrich Bopparder von Müden who was his uncle and in 1526 he donated an Easter candlestick made of limestone for the St. Castor collegiate church in Karden. The candlestick, which is carried kneeling by an angel and the three brothers Jakob, Friedrich and Peter in choir clothing, came from the Liebig collection in Gondorf to the Rheinisches Landesmuseum in Bonn in 1935 . The chandelier angel is attributed to the Mainz sculptor Hans Backoffen . Another foundation that goes back to Peter Boppard, the Kardener in the festival calendar of 1588 for the March 25 abzuhaltende Feast of the Annunciation with a procession through the cloister and a Statio it feeds into the choir of the church.
