Older forms of the place name are Zákupy (1352) and Zákopy . Zákupy is mentioned as a market town in 1359. The rulership to which the village belonged came into the possession of the Wartenberg family in 1363 , who sold it together with the associated lands to the Berka von Dubá family in 1460/63 . The parish church had its own pastor as early as 1384.
The manor and castle were then owned by the Berka von Dubá family for centuries. From 1632 the town and castle Reichstadt belonged to the Dukes of Saxony-Lauenburg , the last owner from this family was the expelled heiress to the throne Anna Maria Franziska , married Duchess of Tuscany († 1741).
Around the middle of the 17th century the rule came to Julius Franz von Sachsen-Lauenburg . In 1676, the Duke had a Capuchin monastery and monastery church set up here, which was inaugurated on September 17, 1684 by Prague Archbishop Johann Friedrich von Waldstein . According to a court decree in 1785, the number of religious was reduced from twenty to twelve. Around 1830 there were two priests and three lay brothers living there .
In 1805 the rule fell to the Wittelsbacher Maximilian Joseph IV of Pfalz-Zweibrücken , who in 1806 had to cede his possessions in Bohemia to Archduke Ferdinand of Salzburg with the acceptance of the Bavarian royal dignity . In 1815, through a family contract of the House of Habsburg-Lorraine, the Bohemian lordships of Reichstadt, Politz , Ploschkowitz , Tachlowitz , Buschtiehrad , Swollinowes , Kronporitschen and Katzow , to which the Grand Duke of Tuscany was entitled , were united under the title Duchy of Reichstadt . Emperor Franz I of Austria signed this over to his grandson Napoleon Franz Bonaparte in 1818 , who then took on the title of Duke of Reichstadt . He was the only legitimate male descendant of Napoleon Bonaparte and died in 1832 without ever having visited the city.
From 1848 Reichstadt was one of the retirement homes of the abdicated Emperor Ferdinand . From the middle of the 19th century, the city formed a municipality in the judicial district of Niemes or in the Bohemian Leipa district . On July 8, 1876, the Austrian Emperor Franz Joseph and the Russian Tsar Alexander II negotiated here about Austria's neutrality in the Russo-Turkish War . In 1900, Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria and Countess Sophie Chotek von Chotkowa married in Reichstadt .
In 1851 Ferdinand Leitenberger , a retired Imperial and Royal Rittmeister, founded the first volunteer fire department in the entire Austro-Hungarian monarchy in Reichstadt .
After the First World War , Reichstadt was added to the newly created Czechoslovakia in 1919 . Due to the Munich Agreement , Reichstadt belonged from 1938 to 1945 to the district of Deutsch Gabel , district of Aussig , in the Reichsgau Sudetenland of the German Empire .
Demographics
Until 1945 Reichstadt was mostly populated by German Bohemia , which were expelled.
