To this end, it was necessary to obtain a permission of the [[German Emperor\|emperor]] and the [[pope]]. Although the permission of the pope was granted in 1564 and of the emperor in 1566, the university was founded about ninety years later in 1654, after the acquisition of the [[Duchy of Cleves]] by [[Frederick William, Elector of Brandenburg\|Frederick William]], [[Elector of Brandenburg]]. It opened on 14 October 1655 by [[Johannes Clauberg\|Johannes Claudberg]] as their first rector.<ref>{{Cite book\|url=https://freidok.uni-freiburg.de/fedora/objects/freidok:3576/datastreams/FILE1/content\|title=Die Territorien des Reichs im Zeitalter der Reformation und Konfessionalisierung : Land und Konfession 1500 – 1650\|last=Schindling\|first=Anton\|year=1991\|pages=98}}</ref> The university had four faculties: [[Theology]], [[Medicine]], [[Law]] and [[The arts\|Arts]]. During its period of activity it was one of the central and leading universities of the western provinces of [[Prussia]]. Only a few decades later the university was in competition with the much better equipped Dutch universities. Since only about one third of the population in the western provinces of Prussia were member of [[The Reformed Church]], most [[Lutheranism\|Lutheran]] and [[Catholic Church\|Catholic]] citizens in the second half of the 18th century sent their sons to other universities.
