Raz jeszcze o rejestrze odbiorców glejtów wydanych przez wielkiego mistrza krzyżackiego Ludwika von Erlichshausena w latach 1450–1451

This study contains a presentation of the latest research results on the register of safe conducts, issued by the Chancellery of the Grand Master of the Teutonic Order, Ludwig von Ehrlichshausen. They went to proscribed people, in most cases accused of committing homicide or causing bodily injury. These people, hiding from the justice system but wanting to clear their names or communicate with the victims or their representatives, resorted to an old custom related to the tour of the state of the Teutonic Order in Prussia by the newly elected Grand Master of the Teutonic Knights. It allowed those who managed to ask the new head of the Teutonic Order for protection during the journey to receive (for a fee) a written safe conduct (letter of safe conduct), guaranteeing the interested parties inviolability in a specific area and for a specific period of time. Thanks to this document, they could start trying to free themselves from the burden of proscription.
