Villages administered by the Heiligen Geist Hospital of Lübeck

Prior to 1804, the Heiligen Geist Hospital of Lübeck owned and administered a number of villages under Holstein sovereignty (Holstein-Lübeck) and three tiny villages under Lübeck sovereignty. During that period, I group the villages in Holstein under Gericht Scharbeutz (the largest of those villages). In Lübeck, I create Gericht Falkenhusen, after the largest of the three villages. Initially, in contains only that village—the other two (Mönkhof and St. Bertramshof) being too small to worry about.

 

After 1804, only three villages belonging to the Heiligen Geist Hospital remained in Holstein-Lübeck. Some of the villages in Gericht Scharbeutz (Dissau, Krumbek, and Kurau) shifted to Lübeck sovereignty in 1802, where I placed them in Gericht Falkenhusen.  Administration (but not sovereignty) over villages remaining in Gericht Scharbeutz (Kesdorf, Scharbeutz, and part of Gleschendorf) shifted to the Principality of Lübeck in 1804, and I assign the Gericht to the country of Holstein-Oldenburg (after the sovereign entity and the Duchy that eventually subsumed the administering Principality). The villages retained by the Heiligen Geist Hospital after 1804 (Barkhorst, Giddendorf, and Pölitz) were dispersed among other Gerichte based on geography.
