Johan Wunstorp
Johan Wunstorp (* in Wunstorf ; † August 7, 1483 in Lübeck ) was a German lawyer and council secretary of the Hanseatic city of Lübeck.
Life
Born Johan Reyndes , he and his brother, the Syndicus of the city of Braunschweig Hinrich Wunstorp , changed the family name as the name of origin. He studied at the University of Erfurt from 1441 and graduated with a doctorate. In 1455 he was appointed council secretary and protonotary of the city of Lübeck and remained in this office until his death. He was buried in the Katharinenkirche in Lübeck . As a Lübeck chronicler, he is the author of part of the Lübeck Ratschronik (section 1469 to 1480).
In the Oberstadtbuch , the land register of the city of Lübeck, there is the following entry in 1473: Mr. Michael von Rentelen left his heir Gertrud von Nudeln and her son Hans a house in the local St. Annenstraße , which was ascribed to the Lübeck protonotary Johann Wunstorp. Only citizens of Lübeck were allowed to own property within the city. As a religious and bishop, the Schwerin auxiliary bishop Michael could not have the citizenship of Lübeck and thus acquire property in the city, which is why the house was registered in trust in the name of the protonotary.
