caption_attribution_description: English: Hans Ramel (1867-1957), Swedish baron, landowner, courtier and member of parliament.
context_page_description: Master of the Horse was a court clerk, who held one of the foremost rankings of the Royal Court of Sweden. He had the highest oversight of the Royal Stables, but this was governed by the First Crown Equerry, and he was for a time head of the state stud farm service in Sweden, thereby succeeding the former Riksstallmästaren in some of his duties.
  Two such offices were occupied by the Royal Court in 1729, and appear to have been re-instated in 1763. During the period 1774–1792, the corresponding court official also worked at the Queen's Court and 1774–1782 and 1792–1795 at the Queen dowager's Court. "Överhovstallmästare" also appeared as a title with no corresponding office.
  The office was abolished at the end of 1969.
