Land Marshal (Sweden)
The Landmarschall (Swedish: Lantmarskalk ) in Sweden was the chairman of the knight's house , the representative of the nobility in the Estates Assembly, which consisted of the four chambers of the four estates (aristocracy, priests, citizens and farmers) from 1668 to 1865 and was thus also President of the Estates Assembly. The land marshal was either named by the king or chosen by the knighthood . Among the most important holders of the office were Per Brahe the Younger , Johan Göransson Gyllenstierna , Arvid Horn , Carl Gustaf Tessin andFredrik Axel von Fersen .
The Land Marshal is not to be confused with the Reichsmarschall ( Riksmarskalk ).
