This was followed from 1528 by the Sezema from Ústí, from 1536 by Sigismund Slezský from Chlum and in the 17th century by Bohuchval Valkoun from Adlar. In 1736, Count Philipp Kinský had a baroque palace built, which the rulers then mainly used as the seat of the estate administration for the Vorwerk and which was converted into an estate in the 19th century for this purpose .
