Stefan Heße was installed today as Hamburg's third archbishop.
Introductory greetings were given by Munich's Carindal Reinhard Marx, Protestant Bishop Gerhard Ulrich, Hamburg's Mayor Olaf Scholz and Christine Roschlaub, representing the pastoral committee of the Archdiocese of Hamburg.
The 48-year-old priest from Cologne obtained his doctorate in 2001, which is a study of the theology of vocation as outlined by Hans Urs von Balthasar.
