-'''Heiratskonsens '''(permission to get married)
-Before 1805 the magistrate&nbsp;executed both the civil and judicial administration. People who wanted to get married, needed to write a petition to the magistrate in order to get married. They would present their intentions indicating that the parents were in agreement with their marriage partner. Usually the groom would ask for permission. The petition was then signed by both marriage partners with additional signatures by the parents or guardians, if the parents were deceased. The magistrate would then reply, granting permission for banns to be read and admonishing the couple to get in contact with the local priest.
