Aschaffenburg, Council of

(Concilium. Aschaffenburgense). This is a town of Germany, lately in the territory of Mentz, but now a principal town of Bavaria. Gerard of Epperstein assembled a council here in 1292, after the death of pope Nicholas IV, while the papal chair was vacant. Some salutary constitutions for the good of the Church were drawn up.
