history

Archaeological finds show that the municipality was settled between 1200 and 800 BC. By the Knovíz culture . It is possible that during the legendary meadow war between the tribes of the Czechs under Neklan and Lutschanen in 863 the battle on the mountain, mentioned in the Chronica Boemorum , took place in the Na zabitém corridor in the northern part of the Úholičky cadastre, where the REGIOS company dump is located today Turzkoer Feld.

The Hoholice Manor has belonged to the St. Vitus Cathedral Chapter in Prague Castle since the 14th century . In 1420 King Sigismund took possession of the property and gave it to Václav von Valovice. This probably only owned part of Hoholice, because a little later Ulrich von Neuhaus and Zdeněk Konopišťský von Sternberg had a dispute with the Prague burgraviate over the two castle counts' villages Hoholice and Stodůlky.

Around 1600 the Prague cathedral chapter briefly bought the property back; in 1603 it was first mentioned as Auholičky . A little later, the owner of the Tuchoměřitz estate ceded the Auholičky farm with a mill, a farmer and three chalupners to Wenceslaus Trmal from Toušice on Chwatěrub for 9500 Meißnick shock . After the Battle of White Mountain , Trmal's goods were confiscated. In 1624 the court chamber sold the estate to Charles I of Liechtenstein , who united it with the Rostok rule . The Princes of Liechtenstein sold Rostok and Auholičky in 1803 to the Prague legal scholars Joseph Mader and Joseph Löhner . After the death of his father-in-law Mader, Löhner became the sole owner of the Rostok estate in 1815. He sold the Auholičky farm to the Prague citizen Martin Nowak. This made Auholičky a land-based dominion. Nowak had a prison built in the courtyard in which he locked up his subjects without conviction, even for minor offenses. After Nowak's death in 1825 his son of the same name inherited the Auholičky estate with a usable area of ​​390 yokes 4391 square fathoms, to which only the village of the same name belonged.

In 1843 Auholičky or Auholiček consisted of 37 houses with 239 Czech-speaking residents. Of these, three farmers and two Chalupner belonged to the Chrasstian lordship . A Jewish family lived in Auholičky . In the village there was a partially emphyteutized farm with the administrator's apartment, a sheep farm and two inns. The two-speed mill Podmoran ( Podmoráň ) was off the beaten track . The population was mostly made up of Emphyteuts and cottagers ; there were also two innkeepers, two tailors, a miller, a blacksmith, a shoemaker and a midwife. The parish was Aunětitz . Until the middle of the 19th century, Auholičky remained the official village of the property of the same name.

After the abolition of patrimonial formed Ouholičky / Auholičky 1850 a municipality in the county and judicial district Smíchov . The Nowak family sold the estate in 1860; in 1873 Josef von Waldstein bought it . His son Zdeněk von Waldstein offered the community a plot of land to build a village school, but this refused because of feared dependency. Waldstein leased the farm buildings and fields in 1880 to Abraham Stein, who set up a beet seed breeding farm in Ouholičky. In 1901 the von Waldstein family sold the castle and estate to the agricultural entrepreneur Josef Wohanka . He introduced the large-scale production of beet seeds in Bohemia and ran several laboratories, including one in Ouholičky. Wohanka was knighted by Emperor Franz Josef I for his services to agriculture. At the beginning of the 20th century the village consisted of around 100 houses. Josef Wohanka handed the seed breeding business over to his sons Miloš and Vladimír in 1920, who also bought the Tursko estate. In Roztoky they bought a factory building that was converted into a cleaning facility and warehouse for beet seeds. A nature theater was built in the local area of ​​Krakov in the 1920s. The place name Ouholičky was used until 1924 as an alternative to the current form of name introduced at the end of the 19th century. In 1927 the municipality was assigned to the Praha-venkov district and the judicial district of Praha-západ. From 1929 Úholičky belonged to the judicial district of Praha-sever. The village had 600 inhabitants in 1932. In 1942, Úholičky became part of the newly formed Praha-venkov-sever district. After the end of the Second World War, Úholičky came to the judicial district of Praha-západ. Since 1949 the municipality has belonged to Okres Praha-západ . In 1950 part of Podmoráň was incorporated, the other part remained with Žalov. Úholičky was incorporated into Velké Přílepy on April 1, 1976 . In the following years there was no investment in the local infrastructure and the village fell into disrepair. In addition, the number of residents fell by a third.
