Alexander from the kindred Győr (Hungarian: Győr nembeli Sándor; died 1207) was a Hungarian noble at the turn of the 12th and 13th centuries, who served as ispán of Moson County for a short time.
A contemporary document preserved his nickname "Kubech".[1] Sometimes after 1199, the Győr brothers founded a Benedictine monastery in their possession seat Lébény, Győr County. There they also built a Romanesque church, dedicated to Apostle James the Greater. Alexander was a faithful soldier of Emeric, King of Hungary. When the royal army invaded Serbia then Bulgaria in 1201 or 1202, Alexander participated in the skirmish against Gubasel, who was possibly a Cuman chieftain of Bulgarian tsar Kaloyan. For his service, he was granted the estates of Bán (present-day Bánovce nad Bebravou, Slovakia) and Sásony (present-day Winden am See, Austria) by Emeric. Alexander donated both lands to the Lébény Abbey thereafter.[2] He served as ispán of Moson County in 1207, but died soon, as his brother Pat succeeded him in that year.[3] When King Andrew II confirmed the Győr brothers' donations to the Lébény Abbey in 1208, Alexander was already referred to as a deceased person.[4]
