The village of Čepirohy (German Tschöppern , Czeppern ; also Czeprun, Czepran, Cziepirohy, Šepirozy) is located about three kilometers southwest of the town of Brüx (now Most ) in the Czech Republic .
history
The area was settled 4000 years before our era. The village was first mentioned in documents in 1331, when the Bohemian King Ottokar II Přemysl granted it privileges. One can therefore assume that the settlement already existed before that. In the 15th century, the village belonged to the lords who settled in the state watchdog. Other owners were in 1505 Klement z Čepiroh a Rudolic and in 1507 Johann von Weitmühl (Jan z Veitmile). In the 1520s it was the Pátek z Čepiroh family , then the town of Brüx.
The predominantly agricultural village, in which about seven farmers and nine cottagers lived in the 17th century, burned down for the most part in 1707. In the first half of the 19th century, coal mining began (Constituzion and Hutwies shafts, Bavaria and Hrabák shafts since 1917). As a result of industrialization, more people settled there, so that Tschöppern had 323 inhabitants at the beginning of the 20th century and 677 in 1930.
Most of the village was demolished from 1968 to 1972, the new development area was attached to Most in 1976. In 1991 there were 574 people in Čepirohy. In 2001 Čepirohy consisted of 122 houses and had 471 inhabitants.
