Historian
|
Johann Mechtel was a chronicler; b. 1562 in Pfalzel near Trier (Germany); d. after 1631, perhaps as late as 1653 in Trier. He is often named Pfalzel after his native town where he first studied and then went to the University of Trier, conducted by the Jesuits, where the historian Christopher Brote acquired a lasting influence over him. After his ordination (about 1587), he was appointed pastor at Eltz, near Limburg; in 1592 he became canon at Limburg and as such administered for two years the troublesome parish of Camberg. In 1604 he was appointed dean, but soon got into difficulties with his canons and finally, by request of the elector of Trier in order to restore peace, he resigned, and accepted the canonry at St. Paulinus in Trier.
