BARNIM XI

This article appears in Volume V03, Page 416 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: BAI-BAR
BARNIM XI . (1501-1573), son of Bogislaus X., duke of
Pomerania
 , became duke on his father's death in 1523. He ruled for a time in common with his
elder
  brother George; and after George's death in 1531 he shared the duchy with his
nephew
  Philip I., retaining for himself the duchy of
Pomerania
 -
Stettin
 . The earlier years of his
rule
  were troubled by a quarrel with the margrave of Brandenburg, who wished to annex Pomerania. In 1529, however, a treaty was made which freed Pomerania from the supremacy of Brandenburg on
condition
  that if the ducal family became
extinct
  the duchy should revert to Brandenburg. Barnim adopted the doctrines of Martin Luther, and joined the league of Schmalkalden, but took no
part
  in the subsequent war. But as this attitude left him without supporters he was obliged to submit to the emperor Charles V., to pay a heavy fine, and to accept the
Interim
 , issued from Augsburg in May 1548. In 1569 Barnim handed over his duchy to his grand-
nephew
 , John Frederick, and died at
Stettin
  on the 2nd of June 1573
