What Are The Positions In A Monastery? [Solved]
Wow! That’s a lot of roles in a medieval monastery. The abbot or abbess was the CEO, elected by their peers and served until they passed away or were too sick to do their job. The prior was second-in-command, while the steward managed the finances. The cellarer was in charge of supplies, the almoner distributed charity, and the master of novices trained new monks. The guest master welcomed visitors and the infirmarer took care of sick monks - talk about a full house!
