A holder for a magnet of a magnet sensitive regulating valve position detector of a regulating valve of a process plant. The detector can include a shaft turnably movable supported in a housing of the detector, the shaft defining a turning axis oriented parallel to a turning spring supporting itself at the housing, and having a lever arm being turnably fixed with the shaft, the lever arm being coupled to the regulating valve such that a regulating valve stroke movement by the lever arm is transferable into a shaft rotation movement. The holder includes a holding fixture to interlockingly hold the magnet, a fixing section connected to the holding fixture to fix the holder at the shaft turnably fixedly, and a support connected to the holding fixture and the fixing section to latchingly support the rotational spring to generate a rotational spring force on shaft rotation movement.
