A cadastral community[1][2] (or cadastre community,[3] cadastral [or cadastre] municipality,[4][5][6] cadastral [or cadastre] commune,[7][8] cadastral [or cadastre] unit,[7] cadastral [or cadastre] district,[9][10] cadastral [or cadastre] area,[7] cadastral [or cadastre] territory[7]) is a cadastral subdivision of municipalities in the nations of Austria,[11] Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia,[5][12] the Czech Republic,[13] Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia,[2][4] the Netherlands, and the Italian provinces of South Tyrol, Trentino, Gorizia and Trieste. A cadastral community records property ownership in a cadastre, which is a register describing property ownership by boundary lines of the real estate.
The common etymology in the Central European successor states of the Habsburg monarchy comes from German: Katastralgemeinde (KG; literally "cadastral municipality" or "cadastral community"), plural: Katastralgemeinden,[5][11] translated as Italian: comune censuario or comune catastale, Slovene: katastralna občina, Croatian: katastarska općina. In Czech and Slovak, the historical name (Czech: katastrální obec, Slovak: katastrálna obec, literally "cadastral municipality/community") was changed to Czech: katastrální území and Slovak: katastrálne územie (literally "cadastral area" or "cadastral territory") in 1928 and today, on official websites, it is usually translated to English by the (misleading) terms "cadastral unit" in Czechia and "cadastral district" in Slovakia. In what is today Hungary, the concept and term (Hungarian: kataszteri község) existed only in the past.
