The introduction of the Reformation Pomerania in 1534 to the Diet to Treptow (on the shelf) in the presence of the Pomeranian Reformer Johannes Bugenhagen and the Counter-Reformation in Poland from 1587 led to a fundamental change. Because the Pomeranian duke house was now on Protestant, a Catholic marriage policy in the direction of Poland was virtually impossible. From now been married only in the direction of German princely houses, especially Brunswick-Lüneburg and a crown in the direction of the (superior) Electorate of Saxony . An artistic evidence of this connection is the so-called later Croy-Teppich .
The change to the Reformation of course not limited only to the Duke house. With the secularization of monastic property (in favor of the sovereign), etc. took place in the entire country is a profound change that affected almost all spheres of life. For the first time it came to form a national church, which engulfed the entire country, before Pomerania was divided into three church - Insel Rügen: Diocese of Roskilde; mainland complaints (Stralsund, Barth, Tribsees): Diocese of Schwerin, the old Pomeranian (less the area of \u200b\u200bthe current only to 1325 Principality of Rügen): Diocese Cammin. The landing Buetow and Lauenburg were again a special case, here is the impact of counter-reformation of Poland since so that a significant part of the communities became a Catholic again.

This is valid for the Pomeranian duke house principle of Realteilung (common in many other German lands, such as Brunswick-Lüneburg), so the division of the country (the sons), instead of awarding the first-born , numerous split took part in the duchies and below this level in gentlemen with him. The two most important part of duchies, which were formed out twice for a longer time were Pomerania-Wolgast (main residence in Wolgast) and Pomerania-Stettin. Here are two main divisions include: the of 1295 in Pommern-Wolgast (the northernmost part of the coast, then still without the Principality of Rügen) to the south and in Pomerania Stettin it. The second main division in 1532 separated into a western part of Pomerania (Pommern-Wolgast) and an eastern part (Pomerania-Stettin). The second division was a fundamental nature, because it created two national administrations, which had also continued to exist then, when was the last time Pomerania reunited in a Duke hand - under Bogislaw XIV.
side of the Reformation is the Pomeranian Duke house a Cultural achievement to be counted, which still exists today and has had a beneficial bringing the near region: the University of Greifswald . The main initiative was started by Mayor Heinrich Rubenow, but this would be up in 1456 without the princely founder Wartislaw IX. , who made the university is to his cause, and without the advocacy and monitoring of the Cammin Bishop Henning Iven not have been possible. His best man, the provost Kolberger Nicolaus Bruckmann completed, the appropriate preparation in the Roman Curia on delicate way with 390 ducats (a papal document on the foundation was necessary). He succeeded so let evaporate the Rostock opposition ineffective.

But it was not the foundation itself, which secured the stock. In addition almost 100 years later came the continuity assurance measures by Duke Philip I. with his restoration of the University after the turmoil of the Reformation, and the donation of the last Pomerania Duke Bogislaw XIV, with the override of the Office Eldena the economic existence, including all buildings (including the university main building of 1750) to the Beginning of the second secured Empire 1871. The existence of the State University of Greifswald (the only university in Pomerania German time) is so much to these three dukes plus Duke Ernst Ludwig (construction of the precursor College of the current main building) plus its patron Bogislaw of Croy (nephew Bogislaws XIV) . due.
