KOLEGIA WIKARIUSZY I MANSJONARZY WIELUŃSKICH DO POŁOWY XVIII W.
COLLEGIATE OF VICARS AND MANSIONARIES IN WIELUŃ UNTIL THE MID-18TH CENTURY

Summary/Abstract: Wieluń was the only city of the Wieluń region, which became the seat of the collegiate chapter in the Middle Ages. At the collegiate church there were colleges of vicars and mansionaries, erected in the 15th century. The vicars replaced prelates and canons and priests in the choirs of Wieluń parish. Mansionaries honored the liturgy in the collegiate church with their singing and services. However, political, social and economic conditions that changed over the centuries led to the collapse of the Mansionaries foundation. In 1730, the College of Manners was merged with the College of Vicars. Since then on, the vicars of Wieluń combined the duties of the foundation and acted until the dissolution of the Wieluń chapter and collegiate church in 1819.
