history

Olexowice was first mentioned in 1350 when the brothers Wlček and Wylenec from Olexowice agreed on their property. In 1490 Georg Kusy von Olexowice was named as the owner. 1533 bought Johann Kytl Lhotka of the claims of the Johann of Leipa on the material and the resistant optional Olexowice by 217 Mährische guilders and was out of the feudal relation. Later Kytl's daughters Anna and Dorothea owned the estate; In 1543 they took Dorothea's husband, Peter d. Ä. Dubňanský von Bačic in community of property on the festivals and the yard. The following owners were Tiburz and Georg Dubňanský von Bačic, who sold the estate to Heinrich Daupowsky von Daupowa in 1550. Wilhelm Kusy von Mukoděl acquired the estate from the latter in 1559; In 1566 he instructed his wife Katharina von Bilkow on a Wittum . The underage descendants of Wilhelm Kusy sold the estate in 1574 to the lords of Leipa, who attached it to their Krumlov rule . In the middle of the 16th century, the Hutterite Brothers built a Bruderhof in the farm buildings of the former fortress; the Hutterites from Eibenschitz and the surrounding area held their religious meetings in Olexowice and had their own school. The Hutterite community soon grew to around 400 members. After the Battle of White Mountain in 1621, all of the goods belonging to Berthold Bohuslaw ( Bohubud ) von Leipa, who was a leader of the Moravian estates, were confiscated. In the autumn of 1622, Emperor Ferdinand II had the Hutterites expelled from the country in the course of the Counter-Reformation if they did not convert to Catholicism; some of the Hutterites adapted to the new circumstances and stayed in the place. In 1625 Gundaker von Liechtenstein acquired the Krumlov rule, which then remained in the possession of the House of Liechtenstein for almost 300 years . After the Hutterites had been completely driven out in 1628, economic decline began. The princes of Liechtenstein then built a paper mill on the Jihlava.

In 1835 the village Alexowitz or Wolexowice , located in the Znojmo district , consisted of 33 houses in which 184 people lived. Georg Holub's paper mill had 20 employees and produced around 300 bales of writing paper annually. The stately Meierhof Karlshof and a tavern on the passing trade route were located apart . The parish was Řeznowitz . The paper mill was destroyed in the flood of 1839; in their place, Alfred Skene established a mechanical spinning mill in 1847 that produced army clothing and fashion goods. Until the middle of the 19th century, Alexowitz remained subordinate to the Fideikommiss-Primogeniturherrschaft Moravian-Krummau .

After the abolition of patrimonial Aleksovice / Alexowitz formed a community in the judicial district of Eibenschitz from 1849 . Alfred Skene moved to Brno in 1855 , where he and his brother August founded the Skene Brothers company in 1859 . He transferred the Alexowitz cloth factory to his second son Louis. From 1869 the village belonged to the Brno District ; at that time Aleksovice had 307 inhabitants and consisted of 36 houses. At the end of the 19th century, Alexovice or Oleksovice were used as alternative Czech place names, and since the beginning of the 20th century only Alexovice was used. In 1900 there were 227 people in Alexovice; In 1910 there were 329. With the death of Rudolf von Liechtenstein in 1908, the Charlemagne line of the House of Liechtenstein expired; The Kinsky counts became heirs to the large estates . In 1913, Louis Skene took Alfred Placzek into his cloth factory as a company. In the 1921 census, 365 people lived in the village's 43 houses, including 329 Czechs and 26 Germans. In 1930 Alexovice had 466 inhabitants and consisted of 87 houses. After the German occupation, Alexovice / Alexowitz belonged to the Protectorate of Bohemia and Moravia until 1945. In 1948 the village was assigned to the Okres Rosice. The incorporation to Ivančice took place in 1949. 1950 lived in Alexovice 568 people. In the course of the territorial reform and the repeal of the Okres Rosice, the village came back to the Okres Brno-venkov on July 1, 1960 . The textile factory later traded as Mosilana . At the 2001 census there were 568 people in Alexovice's 163 houses.
