During the 18th century, the branch continued to live at the rather modest Weissenfeld manor house and also owned the
Weissenfelder Hof (Weissenfeld court) in
Lemgo, which both no longer exist. Towards the end of the 18th century, the family inherited considerable estates in the
Electorate of Saxony, and moved there. Friedrich Ludwig, 2nd Count of Lippe-Weissenfeld (1737-1791), whose seat now was
castle Saßleben in
Calau, received the lordship of
Baruth (including the estates of Rackel and Buchwalde) from his wife's family, the counts
von Gersdorff, in 1797, and later also acquired the smaller estates of Dauban and Sornitz.
Baruth bei Bautzen must be distinguished from
Baruth/Mark, a lordship of the counts and later princes of
Solms-Baruth. His elder son Ferdinand (1773-1846) inherited the Baruth lordship, while the latter's younger half-brother Christian (1777–1859) founded the younger line and received the estate of Teichnitz near
Bautzen from the counts von
Hohenthal, the family of his mother as well as of his wife. Later some smaller estates such as Lubachau, Gersdorf and Döberkitz were added. His grandson Clemens, 1st Prince of Lippe-Weißenfeld (1860–1920), acquired
Schloss Proschwitz near
Meissen by marriage to Baroness Friederike von
Carlowitz in 1910. All properties were expropriated in the
Soviet occupation zone in 1945. After the
German reunification of 1990, Prince Georg of Lippe-Weissenfeld, a younger son of Christian, 4th Prince of Lippe-Weissenfeld, re-purchased the estate and castle of Proschwitz and established the renowned wine estate
Prinz zur Lippe,
Saxony's largest private winery. Besides the wine production, he opens the castle for concerts, balls, banquets, conferences and weddings. In 1895 Count Egmont zur Lippe-Weissenfeld (1841-1896) bought
Castle Pfaffstätt in Austria. After his death, a year later in 1896, his family continued to occupy the castle until 1909 when they resold it to Adolf
Freiherr von
Peckenzell, whose family owned the castle until 1868, when they had to sell it to a banker, Heinrich Klinkosch (1830-1889), uncle of
Princess Johanna of Liechtenstein. Egmont's younger son, Prince Alfred zur Lippe-Weissenfeld (1881-1960), by virtue of marriage to Countess Anna von
Goëss (1895-1972) came into a possession of
Castle Alt-Wartenburg in
Austria, where his son
Prince Egmont of Lippe-Weissenfeld spent his youth and where his sisters, princesses Karola, Sophia and Theodora were born. The castle was heavily damaged in 1945 during
WWII.
