When this article was originally published in Austrian History Yearbook, it contained some errors. They are as follows:

On page 624 (8), it is currently “we see the prince abbot of Fulda, Berthold of Vöelkerhausen, attempt to reassert his authority over the town of Hersfeld”. This should read “we see the prince abbot of Hersfeld, Berthold of Völkerhausen”.

On page 626 (10) it is currently “The first feud arose from the abbot of Fulda Berthold of Voelkerhausen’s botched attempt to capture the town of Hersfeld during Sankt Vitalisnacht (28/29 April 1378).60 The ensuing feud proved to be a particularly bitter and cruel one. Upon learning of the abbot’s plan to capture the town, the townsmen burst into Fulda’s cathedral chapter’s quarter”. This should read “The first feud arose from the abbot of Hersfeld Berthold of Völkershausen’s botched attempt to capture the town of Hersfeld during Sankt Vitalisnacht (28/29 April 1378).60 The ensuing feud proved to be a particularly bitter and cruel one. Upon learning of the abbot’s plan to capture the town, the townsmen burst into Hersfeld’s cathedral chapter’s quarter”.

The authors apologise for these errors.
