The Salavá branch of the Lípa family
- The progenitor of this branch of the family was Matěj ( Mathias ) Salava, who had owned the East Bohemian Castle of Skály since 1393 , from which his son of the same name inherited it. He was a follower of the Taborite Jan Kolda of Žampach . Together with this and other allies he took part in 1433 in Kolda's campaign against Choceň , which ended with the slaughter of 70 Choceňern. From his castle Skály, Matěj Salava made forays into Silesia , which is why the castle was bought by them in 1447 and subsequently destroyed. This branch is said to have existed until 1741. Other possessions were Borowan in Moravia, Perssteynecz, Bahno, Mallesow and Strzezeticz.
