geography
The municipality is located in the western part of the Slovak Ore Mountains in the valley of the Poltarica brook . The center of the village lies at an altitude of 297 m nm and is five kilometers from Poltár and 23 kilometers from Lučenec .
The municipality Vaľkovo has belonged to the municipality since 1973 (until 1927 in Slovak "Válkovo"; Hungarian Válykó ). Zlatno, however, became independent on May 1, 1998 and is no longer part of České Brezovo.
Neighboring municipalities are Kokava nad Rimavicou in the north, Lehota nad Rimavicou in the northeast, Selce in the east, Hrnčiarska Ves in the southeast, Poltár (district Slaná Lehota ) in the south, Uhorské in the west and Krná and Ďubákovo in the northwest. Furthermore, the municipality completely surrounds Zlatno north of the main town, which thus forms an enclave .
history
The place probably originated in the 13th century and was first mentioned in writing in 1435 as Brezow . The first landlords came from the Zach family , later there were members of the Bosnyák and Szentiványi families . In 1828 there were 78 houses and 560 inhabitants who were employed in agriculture and as cooper and wheelwright. In 1836, JG Zahn founded a glass factory in Zlatno, which ended in 2003 (for details see the history section in the Zlatno article ).
Until 1918, the place in Neograd County belonged to the Kingdom of Hungary and then came to Czechoslovakia or now Slovakia.
The name refers to large numbers of birch trees in the area. The adjective "české" (in German Bohemian) refers on the one hand to the stay of Hussites in the area in the 15th century, on the other hand it serves to differentiate from other places called Brezovo (e.g. Rimavské Brezovo and Suché Brezovo ).
