He then lived on his manor in Remeringhausen in the Schaumburg district , which after his death came into the possession of his sister's family, von Breitenbuch , through inheritance , while the Nienfeld estate went to the family of another sister, von Blomberg . The Münchhausen Castle in Apelern , since 1370 in the family's feudal possession, he bequeathed his distant nephew and adoptive son from the black line (which had split up around 1250), Heyno Baron von Münchhausen (* 1915) - whose maternal inheritance, Vitzenburg Castle with Querfurt, was expropriated in 1945 - because this nephew in turn had a son Matthias, who now owns the Apelern estate.
