Prince-abbot

A prince-abbot is a person who used to be the head of a church group called an abbey, but also had the title and power of a prince. This means that they had the ability to make decisions like a prince would, but also looked after the religious community that they belonged to. Think of it like someone who is the leader of a club but also has a fancy title like a king or queen.

The prince-abbot would live in a big building called an abbey, which is like a big house where the people who follow the religious group live, worship, and work together. The people who lived in the abbey would follow the leader, or the prince-abbot, and they would all help run the abbey together.

The prince-abbot had a lot of responsibilities, like making sure the people who lived in the abbey were well taken care of, overseeing the work that needed to be done, and making important decisions for the religious community. They were also responsible for helping the poor and anyone who needed help in their town or area.

Overall, a prince-abbot was an important person who had a lot of power and responsibility within their religious community, and also had the title and status of a prince.
