history

The first written mention of Sivohybice took place in a deed of donation from Duke Břetislav I over 17 villages of the Prachin district from October 18, 1045 to the Breunau Benedictine monastery , which is, however, a Breunau falsification from the 13th century. The Benedictines had a daughter monastery built in Nezamyslice , to which the monastery courtyards Nezamyslice and Žichovice , a four-wheel mill in Malé Hydčice, the mill in Staníkov with two mill wheels and two further water wheels for the gold soaps in the Otava and other mills in Žichovice, Olešovice belonged. It is not known how long the Benedictines held the village. When and under what circumstances Žihobce came to secular owners is also not known. There is evidence of a Gunther from Žihobec in 1356 who was probably the owner of the estate. A parish church has survived in Žihobce since 1384. During the Hussite Wars , Smil von Žihobec and his brothers fought against the rebels, in 1420 Jan Žižka's army invaded Žihobec and devastated the place. In 1458, Jan took part of Žihobec called House in the uprising against George of Podebrady , who previously against his possessions to escheat had imposed.

Under the orders of Georg's son Heinrich , the royal army finally undertook a punitive expedition against the rebellious South Bohemian nobles, which destroyed the fortress, the church and the village. In 1461, Žihobec was described as completely desolate. The Vladiks from Žihobec held the Žihobec manor and fortress until the beginning of the 16th century. The estate then passed to the Lords of Riesenberg . After that, Jan Šťastný von Říčan owned the Žihobec estate between 1548 and 1556, and he sold it to the Kotz von Dobrz family . These expanded the estate to include several surrounding villages. At the beginning of the 17th century, Christoph Kotz von Dobrz had a new Renaissance palace built. In 1617 Ludmilla Kotz von Chudenitz sold the Žihobec estate to Jaroslav Pinta Bukovanský von Bukovany. This stood on the side of the insurgents during the uprising of 1618. In September 1620, Baltasar of Marradas occupied the estate. After the Battle of the White Mountain , the Žihobec manor with the Žihobec fortress, the Žihobec brewery, two mills, the Žihobec and Rozsedly farms and the villages of Žihobce, Věštín, Rozsedly, Strašín and parts of Kadešice, Šimanov, Ostružno, and parts of Kadešice, Šimanov, Ostružno Maleč was confiscated by Emperor Ferdinand II in 1623 and given to the Imperial Colonel Martin de Hoeff Huerta. The Žihobce parish became extinct after the Thirty Years' War and was assigned to the Strašín parish as a subsidiary. Then four other former imperial officers, all of whom lived outside of Bohemia, took turns as owners. When Ferdinand Freiherr von Lanau and Iselin († 1700) acquired Žihobec in 1688, the castle, which had been uninhabited for a long time, fell into disrepair. He had the castle renewed in the early Baroque style and moved his seat to Žihobec. In 1700, his widow Anna Franziska bought Pergler von Perglas , née Chanowsky von Langendorf, widowed by Anna Marie , the small Stradal estate, which consisted of only one farm and a few chalets, and united it with the Žihobec rulership. In 1710 Johann Philipp von Lamberg bought the Žihobce estate with the villages of Žihobce, Nezdice , Ostružno , Rozsedly, Věštín, Strašín and Zosum including the attached Stradal estate from Anna Franziska von Iselin, who had meanwhile moved to Carniola , and defeated them Reign of Žichovice too. He was inherited by his nephew Franz Anton von Lamberg , who raised the combined property to a Fideikommiss in 1716 . This was followed by his son Johann Friedrich Reichsfürst von Lamberg in 1760, who died in 1797 without heirs. The imperial princes of Lamberg lived in their castles in Upper Austria; They had their property in the foothills of the Bohemian Forest administered from the Žichovice Castle. The Žihobec Castle initially remained uninhabited and was temporarily used as a granary or leased to Major General Anton Sobietitzky von Sobietitz.

In 1777 the former parish villages in Žihobce had a localist house built at their own expense, and eleven years later the church was elevated to a local church. In 1788 Žihobitz , Žihobicze , Žihobecz and Žihowicze consisted of 64 houses. With the extinction of the imperial line of Lamberg, their dignity, goods and offices fell to Johann Friedrich's nephew Karl Eugen († 1831) from the younger line of the Lamberger, who was elevated to the position of imperial prince of Lamberg, baron of Ortenegg and Ottenstein on Stöckern and Amerang has been. He had the Žihobce Castle restored as a secondary residence. His eldest son Gustav Joachim Fürst von Lamberg († 1862), who because of his involvement in the assassination attempt on Crown Prince Ferdinand in 1832 a. a. had been punished with the green string and a marriage ban, the inheritance came in 1834.

In 1838 the Žihobetz estate comprised the villages of Žihobetz , Rosed ( Rozsedly ), Strashin , Nestitz , Sosum and Wostružno as well as four houses from Karlowetz ( Karlovce ), three houses from Maletsch ( Maleč ), two houses from Kadeschitz ( Kadešice ) and one house from Bukownik . With the exception of the German-inhabited village of Sosum, all of the villages belonging to the estate were Czech-speaking. The village of Žihobetz or Žihobitz consisted of 78 houses with 592 Czech-speaking residents, including two Jewish families. The local church of the Transfiguration, the localist house and the school were under the patronage of the religious fund. There was also an official castle, a yard, a sheep farm, a brick kiln and an inn. Žihobetz was the parish for Beschetin ( Bešetín ), Dražowitz and Rosed. Until the middle of the 19th century, Žihobetz always remained subject to the Fideikommissherrschaft Schichowitz including the estates Raby , Budietitz , Žihobetz and Stradal. After the abolition of patrimonial formed Žihobec or Žihobce / Žihobetz 1850 a municipality in the judicial district Schüttenhofen. Gustav Joachim von Lamberg maintained a relationship with unstandesgemäßes Kateřina Hrádková, the daughter of his Čejkover Schaffer , emerged from the eight children. In 1854, his sentence was lifted by amnesty. On January 6, 1855, Gustav Joachim von Lamberg married his lover in Strašín, to whom he had previously transferred his Austrian estate Lechnerdorf without the family's knowledge. Because of the improper marriage, the relatives challenged him for the title of prince and the property associated with it.

From 1868 the community belonged to the district of Schüttenhofen . After Josef Friedrich Emil von Lamberg was excluded as an heir in 1878, the inheritance was finally awarded to Rudolf Graf Lamberg from the Hungarian branch of the Lamberg family. In the course of the land reform, parts of the Žihobce estate were sold to the Prchala family. Žihobce has been used as the official Czech name since 1924 . After Kunibert Lamberg's death in 1929, as a result of the abolition of the entails right after the establishment of Czechoslovakia, his widow and three daughters inherited the property. In 1946 the Lamberg family was expropriated.

In the course of the abolition of the Okres Sušice, Žihobce was assigned to the Okres Klatovy in 1960. In 1961, Bešetín was renamed, which had previously belonged to Dražovice as a district . At the beginning of 1980 Bílenice, Dražovice and Rozsedly (with Kadešice and Šimanov) were incorporated. Between 1901 and 1971 there was the theater group Tyl in the village . The community bought the castle's winter garden in the 1930s; it was used by the Tyl Theater in the 1970s . Dražovice broke away from Žihobce on November 24, 1990 and formed its own municipality. Žihobce is on the Via Nova pilgrimage route .
