Years: 1260 - 1260
Holy Roman Emperor Frederick I Barbarossa had become the first secular ruler of Bremen in 1186.
Bremen had formally been a Free Imperial City from this time forward but does not have complete independence from the Archbishops, in that there is no freedom of religion, and its citizens are still forced to pay church taxes.
Shortly following Bremen's secularization, in 1260, it gains admission to the Hanseatic League.
