from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Peter von Spreckelsen (* around 1494 in Hamburg ; † June 17, 1553 ibid) was a German lawyer , councilor and mayor of Hamburg.

Live and act

Spreckelsen was born in Hamburg around 1494. He studied jurisprudence and graduated with a degree in both canonical and secular law.

In 1522 Spreckelsen was one of the representatives of the parish of Sankt Nikolai who discussed the interventions of the scholastic Heinrich Banzkow with the cathedral chapter . The dispute was triggered after Banzkow, against the will of the citizens of the parish, wanted to introduce his own schoolmaster at the church school of Sankt Nikolai. Banzkow had threatened the Jurats with a fine . The cathedral chapter reached an agreement with the council on September 3, 1522. Spreckelsen was elected councilor the following year.

In 1529, Spreckelsen was combined with the former councilman and mayor later Ditmar Koel the dissolution of the company founded in 1236 Dominicans - Monastery of St. John today Rathausmarkt applied. The Johanneum School of Scholars , which was founded in 1529, moved into the monastery building .

In the years 1534 and 1535 Spreckelsen was sent as a council syndicate for peace negotiations between Denmark and Lübeck during the so-called count feud (see Peace of Stockelsdorf ).

On September 12, 1535, Spreckelsen confiscated the country house of Peter Salsborg, the brother of Mayor Hinrich Salsborg († 1534), in Eimsbüttel . Shortly before, Spreckelsen had married Adelheid vom Rhyne († 1546), the widow of the mayor Salsborg, in their fourth marriage. So this incident must have been inheritance disputes. The occupied house was later awarded by the council to the brother of the late Peter Salsborg, Albert Salsborg.

On January 25, 1539 Spreckelsen was elected mayor. As mayor, he traveled to the Reichstag in Speyer in 1544 . For Hamburg he enforced the peaceful liberation of the Hamburg ships, which King Christian III. had been stopped by Denmark on the Lower Elbe near Glückstadt .

In 1551, Spreckelsen, the councilor and later mayor Lorenz Niebur († 1580) and the council secretary and later mayor Nicolaus Vögeler (1525–1587) took part in the day of the Wendish cities in Lübeck. Here it was agreed to maintain neutrality with regard to the enforcement of the Augsburg interim by Emperor Charles V. Before that, Elector Moritz von Sachsen had occupied the city of Magdeburg , which had refused to recognize the interim. Emperor Karl V had then sent his advice Wilhelm Böcklin von Böcklinsau († 1585) to the northern German cities and asked them to recognize them for the interim.

In 1553 Spreckelsen resigned as mayor due to illness and died a short time later.
