Høsterkøb
Høsterkøb is a village in Rudersdal Municipality, some north of central Copenhagen, Denmark. It is bounded on the south by Rude Forest and on the north by open fields. Etymology The name is derived from ''Husfrecop''. The first part of the name means ''hustru'' ("wife") while the suffix ''-køb'', which is only seen in toponyms from the north of Zealand and Scania, means "purchased land" ("købt jord"). Høsterkøb thus means "land purchased by (a) wife". History The village was probably founded some time during the transition between the Viking Age and the Middle Ages (900–1100). It is first recorded in a letter from 1186 where Pope Urban III thinks Bishop Absalon for giving it to Roskilde bishopric. It is also mentioned in Roskilde Bishopric Census Book (''Roskildebispens jordebog'') from 1370. The area was administrated from Hjortholm Castle at Furesøen in Frederiksdal After the Reformation, when the Crown confiscated all land owned by the Church, Høsterkøb came un ...

Early career Crivelli was born in Cuggiono, Italy as the son of Guala Crivelli and had four brothers: Pietro, Domenico, Pastore and Guala.

In 1173, Crivelli was made a cardinal by Pope Alexander III. His original title is unknown, but he opted to be the Cardinal-Priest of San Lorenzo in Lucina in 1182. Lucius appointed him Archbishop of Milan in 1185. Lucius III died on 25 November 1185; Cardinal Crivelli was elected that same day. The haste was probably due to fear of imperial interference.
