Landscape captors

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Landscape captor was the historical job title of a certain administrative officer in Germany.

The landscape taker led the accounting of a political landscape , supported by the chest master - the treasurer of the knighthood - and committees in his task. He administered the landscape treasury , wrote out taxes and set the tax rate - that is, the amount of the tax. Although he was chosen personally, but had to leave the bailiff to be confirmed in his post, who exercised supervision over the run from Landschaftseinnehmer and controlled by the counter clerk office. Landscape captors and chest masters jointly represented the landscape to the sovereign . Until 1646, in the Habsburg monarchy, the land occupiers were always identical to the manorial country woman .
