Relation to Brixlegg and Münster in Tyrol

Neuschloss Matzen, Neu-Matzen or Schlösschen Lipperheide

In the wake of a trip to Italy, Lipperheide decided to make Tyrol his second home. In 1883 the negotiations to acquire Matzen Castle near Brixlegg were just about to be concluded. Ultimately, however, the then owner William H. Baillie-Grohman refused to sell. As a result, Lipperheide brought 22 lawsuits against Baillie-Grohman, all of which he lost, and he acquired a large number of properties around Matzen Castle. Ultimately, Lipperheide had its own Neumatzen Castle , also known as Neu-Matzen or Neuschloss Matzen, built and the Matzenpark, which has been preserved to this day, with a memorial bust commemorating him. The castle is located in the municipal area of Münsters . Hugo Wolf completed his opera Der Corregidor in Lipperheide's castle , and Franz Defregger also stayed here as a guest.
