history

Borek is probably a foundation of the Opatowitz Benedictine monastery . After the monastery was looted and burned down by the Hussites under Diviš Bořek von Miletínek in 1421 , the latter seized the extensive possessions.

The first documentary mention of Borek took place in 1436, when King Sigismund transferred large parts of the former monastery property to Diviš Bořek, who formed the Kunburg domain . At the end of the 15th century Wilhelm von Pernstein acquired the dominions of Pardubitz and Kunburg and united them. Wilhelm von Pernstein bequeathed his Bohemian goods to his younger son Vojtěch in 1521 , after his death they passed to his brother Johann in 1534 . In 1548 he left his son Jaroslav in high debt. On March 21, 1560 Jaroslav von Pernstein sold the entire rule of Pardubitz to King Ferdinand I. His successor Maximilian II transferred the administration of the royal lords to the court chamber . This let the rule of Pardubitz reorganize through a system of 24 Rychta ( Scholtiseien ); in 1588 the Rychtář in Dříteč exercised the lower jurisdiction for Borek.
