The distribution of seats in the court church congregation in Weißenfels has hardly been researched so far. Many groups of the court society had their own church chairs, in which they often sat. All other participants in the service stood. At Duke Christian’s funeral in 1736, the court and landed gentry sat in the boxes on the first floor. On the ground floor there were “women’s chairs” (east) and “men’s chairs” (west, east). The bourgeois officials, the common servants and their spouses usually sat there. It is not known when these fixtures disappeared.
