Reinhold Zeller

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Reinhold Zeller (also: Reinald or Reinold Cellar ; † October 3 or October 16, 1355 ) was provost of the Berchtesgaden monastery from 1351 to 1355 .

Nothing is known about Zeller's life and work at the moment, except that he came from the family of the "noble Zeller" from Riedau in the Innviertel .

During his term of office, as provost of the Berchtesgaden monastery, he was still subject to the metropolitan authority of the Archdiocese of Salzburg . It was not until 1455 that the monastery was able to get rid of it and was then subordinate to the Pope in spiritual matters . But the secular independence of the Stiftspropstei began to manifest itself as early as 1294 through the acquisition of blood jurisdiction for serious offenses. Thus Zeller was on an equal footing with the imperial princes .

After decades of inconsistencies between the monastery and the Archdiocese of Salzburg, Zeller benefited from the lawsuits of his predecessor Conrad IV. Tanner , who thus passed on to Salzburg's Archbishop Friedrich III. the promise that since then production and export of the Schellenberger salt through the area of ​​the ore monastery has been allowed to proceed unhindered. As early as 1313, every tenth salt ship on the Salzach or Inn came from Berchtesgaden.

Zeller's grave slab with oversized line drawing is set into the south wall of the cloister between Berchtesgadener Stiftskirche and the former Augustinian monastery .
