Anton Lipošćak,[a] (9 April 1863 – 24 July 1924) was an Austro-Hungarian Army General of the Infantry of Croatian descent who served as the Governor-General of the Military Government of Lublin during the World War I.

In February 1918, Lipošćak was appointed the Governor-General of the Military Government of Lublin in the Kingdom of Poland and he held the position until the end of the war.

[3] Lipošćak returned to Zagreb after the Armistice of Villa Giusti and unsuccessfully tried to reach out to the National Council of the recently proclaimed State of Slovenes, Croats and Serbs which seceded from Austria-Hungary.

[4] Even though Lipošćak sent a message to the National Council on 12 November 1918 informing it he was willing to offer his services as an officer of Croatian descent, the council assumed that Lipošćak would not contravene his military oath to Charles I of Austria without asking to be released from honouring it first – like the Lieutenant Field Marshal Mihael Mihaljević [hr] and General of the Infantry Luka Šnjarić [hr] did only few weeks earlier.

[3] In March 1920, Lipošćak presided over the inaugural meeting of the Society of Retired Officers and Military Personnel in Croatia and Slavonia (Udruga umirovljenih oficira i vojnih činovnika u Hrvatskoj i Slavoniji) in Zagreb.
