Bernhard KRECHTINCK

Bernhard Krechtinck (Bernd Krechting) (†1536), one of the leaders of the Münster Anabaptists. He was a court tutor of the Count of Bentheim in Westphalia, and later a priest at Gildehausein, where he began to take an interest in the Anabaptist movement. He arrived in Münster at the beginning of 1534 and took part in the establishment of the Münsterite Kingdom as one of the Ministers of Jan van Leyden. In 1535 he was captured on the order of Franz von Waldeck, Bishop of Münster, together with Jan van Leyden and Bernhard Knipperdolling. In January 1536, all three were publicly put to death (CE, vol. 2, p. 274)
