Heinrich Lumpe

Lumpe was born in Doubice to farmer and wood merchant Heinrich Ferdinand and his wife Helene née Grohmann.

He schooled at Krásná Lípa and apprenticed in a grocery story in Tetschen (Děčín) in 1873 and joined the business of his uncle Ignaz Lumpe in Aussig.

He married Marie (1865–1946) daughter of Julius Lippert in 1894 and in 1908 he purchased a 6 hectare patch of land and established a nature park and bird reserve.

Professor Jiří Janda was involved in the selection of the site and he consulted with Josef Kořenský and employed the garden designer Rudolf Jenatský.
