The structure of the Pomeranian court of Bogusław XIV during the Thirty Years' War and the remuneration of the ducal officials and servants

Summary/Abstract: This article presents the court structure of the last ruler of Pomerania: Bogusław XIV. The officials and servants were divided between those who were paid from the duke's casket but were not present at the Szczecin Castle on a daily basis, and those working for the duke and his family directly. The latter were accordingly divided in groups which were subordinated to marshal, chancellor and money collector. The duchess' Frauzimmer was discussed separately. In the case of every person, an effort was made to present their salary in cash and kind. The sum of these salaries (45,000 florins) constituted the personnel costs of maintaining the 200-person court of Bogusław XIV.
