Evangelical Lutheran Church of Mecklenburg
The Evangelical Lutheran Church of Mecklenburg ((ドイツ語:Evangelisch-Lutherische Landeskirche Mecklenburgs); abbreviated ELLM) was a Lutheran church in the German state of Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, serving the citizens living in Mecklenburg. The seat of the ''Landesbischof'' (state bishop) was the state capital Schwerin with Schwerin Cathedral as the principal church. It is the most important Protestant denomination in this area.
In May 2012 the ''Evangelical Lutheran Church of Mecklenburg'' merged with North Elbian Evangelical Lutheran Church and Pomeranian Evangelical Church into Evangelical Lutheran Church in Northern Germany.〔(Nordkirche.de (german) )〕
==History==
The Lutheran church in Mecklenburg dates back to the Reformation in the duchies of Mecklenburg, starting with single protagonists in 1523. In 1549 John Albert I, Duke of Mecklenburg gained a majority of deputies of the united Landtag of the separate duchies of Mecklenburg (Mecklenburg-Güstrow, -Schwerin and -Strelitz) to officially introduce Lutheran confession as state religion in the duchies. Since then the dukes of the branch duchies served as supreme governors of the separate Lutheran churches in the duchies, which later had merged to two duchies, Schwerin and Strelitz.
The grand dukes of Mecklenburg-Schwerin and Mecklenburg-Strelitz abdicated in 1918 so that the Lutheran state churches became independent and adapted their new church orders, providing for a function called state bishop. In 1934 the regional churches merged into today's Evangelical Lutheran State Church of Mecklenburg.
