Based on the Tyrolean book of fiefs (Tiroler Lehenbuch), this paper argues that in the everyday rule and administrative routine of Henry of Carinthia until now insufficiently studied, Tyrol Castle played a key role. The family residence of the Meinhardiner held within its walls a branching apparatus of officers who had permanent employment at Tyrol. Moreover, our sources point to the fact that some of them used to amass land and settle in the immediate surroundings, as illustrated by the biography of the scribe Albert of Aichach. Consequently, our findings point to the centralization of government under Henry of Carinthia than to his incompetence in ruling the country.
