history
The first written mention of Schucowicz took place in 1221, when Margrave Vladislav Heinrich donated the village belonging to the sovereign Přerov Castle to the Velehrad Monastery . In 1248 the place was called Svcowiz or Sucowiz , 1253 as Sukowitz and 1265 as Zucowiz . The Cistercian monastery sold the villages of Žalkovice, Břest and Plešovec in 1397 for 450 Scherf to Lacek von Krawarn on Helfenstein . Jan Kuna von Kunstadt belonged to the other owners around 1500 . He was followed by his son Wilhelm Kuna, who left the village to Wenzel von Ludanitz in 1530. This connected Žalkovice to his rule Chropyně . Other forms of the name were Zaukowicz (1506), Zukowicz (1513), Zuokowicz (1516), Zulkowicze (1523), Zalkowicz (1526), Zialkowicz (1580) and Zialkowicze (1590). In 1615 Cardinal Franz Seraph von Dietrichstein bought the rule and exchanged it with the diocese of Olomouc for the rule of Žďár . At that time the village consisted of 50 farms, including 13 half-farm workers. During the Thirty Years War the village became deserted. In 1667 nine of the 44 properties were still in ruins. In 1750 Zialkowicz consisted of 30 Halbhüfners, 20 Podsedeken and 24 Chalupners . The residents lived mainly from agriculture, there were also eight weavers, three shoemakers, a blacksmith and a butcher. In 1830 one of the first municipal libraries in Moravia was established in Zialkowicz . Until the middle of the 19th century, the village remained subject to the episcopal rule Chropyně.
After the abolition of patrimonial Žálkowice / Zialkowitz formed from 1850 a municipality in the district administration of Kremsier. The current place name Žalkovice has been used since 1872. Between 1902 and 1903 the Moštěnka was regulated. In 1910 the river overflowed again and flooded the village. At that time Žalkovice consisted of 110 houses and had about 700 inhabitants. Ethnographically the village belongs to Hanna .
