history

The first written mention of the village of Keprczau , which belongs to the possessions of the episcopal bailiwick of Liebau , was made in 1581 in the land register of the city of Liebau. It is believed that the place was founded by Silesian settlers in the 15th century. In 1585 the place was called Gepirzow or Geprcžau , 1651 as Keprssow , from 1654 as Gepershaw , from 1718 as Geppertzau or Gepperzau , from 1720 as Geppertsau , 1771 as Keprczow or Gepperzovium and 1793 as Geprdowice . The registers have been kept in the city of Liebau since 1659. In 1785, schooling began in the local poor house. In 1826 a school building was built. In 1835, 344 people lived in the village's 51 houses. The residents lived from agriculture, which was not very productive because of the stony and dry soil, and hired themselves as day laborers. Most of the residents earned extra income in the winter from weaving and manufacturing wooden goods. Other forms of the name were Geppercowa (from 1835) and Gepertkovice (1847). Until the middle of the 19th century, Gepperzau always remained subordinate to the Olomouc prince-archbishop's chamber estate Liebau.

After the abolition of patrimonial formed Göperzau / Geprtovice 1850 a municipality in the district administration Moravian white churches and the judicial district town Liebau. In 1855 Geppertsau was assigned to the Stadt Liebau district and from 1868 the village belonged to the Sternberg district. In 1856 a new school building was inaugurated. The chapel was built in the years 1858–1860. From 1872 the municipality used the place names Gepperzau / Kepertovice and since 1893 Geppertsau / Keprtovice . In 1880 382 German-speaking residents lived in the 57 houses of the community. The volunteer fire brigade was founded in 1897 . In the 1900 census, the number of houses had risen to 60, but the number of residents dropped significantly to 342 due to the poverty of the place. At the beginning of the 20th century there was a loan office and two mills in the village. In 1909 Geppertsau was assigned to the Bärn district . In 1921, only 290 purely German-speaking residents lived in the 68 houses in Geppertsau. In 1930 the village consisted of 71 houses and 299 German-speaking residents throughout. After the Munich Agreement , Geppertsau was added to the German Reich in 1938 and until 1945 belonged to the district of Bärn and the judicial district of the city of Liebau. In 1939 there were 318 people in Geppertsau . After the end of World War II, the village came back to Czechoslovakia and the German residents were expelled.

In the course of the establishment of the Libavá military training area , Keprtovice was not repopulated in 1946. In 1949 the municipality was dissolved and renamed Údolná and at the same time assigned to the district and judicial district of Olomouc.
