Hubprobst

Hubprobst (also Hubmeister , from Latin praepositus "superior" and Hube , legal title of a real estate or estate) was an administrator in the area of a manorial rule of the nobility , a church or a monastery and with supervision until the peasants' liberation in the 18th and 19th centuries entrusted over their possession. He monitored the peasants and withdrew the pen , which he charged to the landlord.

Documentary evidence for Austria is 1284 Reinbot der Zeleub as Hubmeister, who calls himself “magister urborum” in a document from 1285. In Austria at least, the office of land clerk , which existed throughout the Middle Ages, gradually passed to the Hubmeister in the course of the 14th century.
