King's Treasurer Nutcracker ES1833

In the 20th Century, the treasurer was the most trusted person in the king’s court. He was responsible for the royalty of the king as well as the surrounding towns people. The Schatzmeister, which is German for Treasurer for the King, was the person in charge of all the financial endeavors of the inhabitants of the walled fortified cities across Europe. The citizens trusted the Schatzmeister with all of their jewels and gold as well.                     

Keeping tabs of the King’s welfare requires a wealth of knowledge. The Schatzmeister was usually the most intelligent person in town.                       

The treasurer, who worked alongside the Night Watchman, had a job that lasted all hours of the day and night. He protected the King’s money from thieves.                       

In 2003 Steinbach released the eighth member of the Steinbach Member’s Only Nutcracker Series, The Treasurer Nutcracker.
