| Aanvullende informatie |
Hieronymus von Colloredo ruled the Archbishopric of Salzburg as an ardent Josephinist, implementing the ecclesiastical reforms of Emperor Joseph II with unusual enthusiasm — suppressing monasteries, restructuring parish finances, and generally antagonizing his clergy and subjects alike. His most famous antagonist was a young court musician he dismissed in 1781: Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, who was literally kicked out of Colloredo's service by the archbishop's chief steward. These kreuzers were struck in the middle years of that turbulent administration, when Salzburg's monetary output reflected the broader Austrian reform agenda rather than any independent episcopal initiative.
