• Description:
  The Teutonic Order and the Dominicans in the rivalry for the Prussian bishoprics in the middle of the 13th century In 1233 the missionary bishop of Prussia Cistercian Christian got into Old Prussian captivity. He stayed there until 1236 or 1237–1238. The Teutonic Order took advantage of this Christian’s absence. As a result of their efforts, Pope Gregory IX impose in 1234 the land of Chełmno and Prussia in possession and at the same time handed them entirely to the owners of the Teutonic Order. However, provided that they set up a separate church organization and adequate remuneration for the bishoprics planned there. On the other hand, the Pope’s decision of 1236 was to be occupied by the Dominicans. Motives – which led by Gregory IX, by issuing the above-mentioned provisions – were combined with the desire to bind the Teutonic Order and Dominicans with the Papal Curia in the face of the game played with Emperor Frederick II. The resignation from Christian could have resulted from the poor results of his activities in Prussia. The Teutonic Order decided to cooperate with the Dominicans, because at that time they did not have adequate human resources to fill the bishoprics. After the conquest of a large part of Prussia in 1236–1240, among the decision-makers of the Teutonic Order won the view that the local episcopate – possessing a powerful fortune, ⅓ of the whole land – should support their power, and only the loyal bishops could ensure the durability of such a line. As a result of the activities carried out, the Teutonic Order permanently took over three from four Prussian cathedral chapters and thus bishoprics.
