Repertorium Poenitentiariae Germanicum

Catalogue of people, churches and landmarks of the Kingdom of Germany mentioned in petitions to the Apostolic Penitentiary

The "Repertorium Poenitentiariae Germanicum" is a collection of Latin entries taken from the registers of petitions directed to the Apostolic Penitentiary, the supreme body of the Curia Romana, covering the period between the papacies of Eugene IV (1431–1447) and Adrian VI (1522–1523). The petitions, made available in print for the first time, offer a wealth of previously unknown material which gives a picture of the ecclesiastical and regional, social and family history of German-speaking Europe.
