About this ebook
This text details the synod held in Altheim in 916 AD, led by representatives of the Church, including a papal legate. The synod's primary purpose was to confront and eliminate the corrupt practices within the Church. It involved a three-day fast and discussions on various ecclesiastical matters, culminating in the establishment of guidelines for bishops and clergy, emphasizing the need for moral integrity, adherence to canon law, and the importance of setting a good example for the laity. The synod also addressed the consequences of excommunication and the need for penitence among clergy and laity alike.
