The Teutonic Order lost its main purpose in Europe with the Christianization of Lithuania.
The order was divided in three national chapters, Prussia, Livland and the territory of the Holy Roman Empire of the German Nation.

Because the properties of the order within the rule of the Deutschmeister did not form a cohesive territory but were spread over the whole empire and parts of Europe, there was an additional regional structure, the bailiwick. One of the bailiwick was Kammerballei Bohemia.

Bruntal properties and chateau is located in nort-east part of current Czech Republic. The Teutonic Knights owned the Bruntal properties since 1620. See the list of Grand Master of the Teutonic Order, who owned Bruntál properties: (visit link) .
