history
Between 1753 and 1755 the imperial road from Budweis to Tábor, which had previously led via Kněžské Dvory and Hrdějovice, was re-routed through the Borek forest belonging to the Frauenberg domain . The first chalup was built on the road in 1805 on a manorial Dominical pasture . Between 1812 and 1816 a Princely Schwarzenbergische Ausspanne and three other houses were built next to it . Life in the small settlement was apparently characterized by poverty, in 1820 the place was called Na Bídě (translated on the misery ). In 1840 the Bjda one- layer on Prager Strasse belonging to the village of Woselno consisted of the Ausspanne and four chalets. The parish was Libnitsch . After kaolin and iron ore deposits were developed in the area in the 1840s, Bída grew into a miners' settlement. Until the middle of the 19th century, the settlement was always subject to the Chyňava manor of the Frauenberg domain.
After the abolition of patrimonial formed Bida / Bida after 1850 a district of the municipality Hosín in the district administration Budějovice / Budweis. In 1869 the settlement had grown to nine houses with 68 residents. The Koh-i-Noor Hardtmuth company had been operating kaolin tunnels northwest of Bída in the Orty locality since the 1870s . At that time, the official place name Borek was also used as an alternative to Bída. In 1910 there were 159 Czech-speaking residents in Bída and Borek . After the hailstorm of June 10, 1916 also caused enormous damage in the Mojský les and Velechvínské polesí forest areas between Nemanice, Úsilné, Borek and Ševětín , Prince Johann zu Schwarzenberg had great difficulty in recovering the windbreak. Because of the war there was a shortage of men, horses and wagons. Therefore, between 1917 and 1918, he had two narrow-gauge forest railways built from the České Budějovice – Veselí nad Lužnicí railway line. One of them led from Kněžské Dvory below Bída through the valley Kyselová voda in the Mojský les. The 6.5 km long 760 mm route was completed in March 1918 and operated until 1921. The place name Bída , perceived as negative , was dropped in 1924. In 1930 there were 290 people living in Borek. The village had now grown beyond the Hosín corridors. On May 16, 1954, Borek was separated from Hosín and, together with the land previously located on the Hrdějovice and Úsilné cadastre, formed a separate municipality and cadastral district. The sports airfield, which was laid out in 1957, hosted the world championships in aerobatics in 1978. In 1971 Borek was connected to the České Budějovice trolleybus service. Since then, Borek has developed into a suburb of České Budějovice. Between 1970 and 1980 the number of houses grew from 87 to 176 and the population from 337 to 852. This trend continues in the present. In 2001 there were 1133 people living in Borek's 276 houses.
