history

The first documentary mention of Brdo was in the country table in 1392 , when Smil Flaška von Pardubitz handed over the Richenburg with the associated 62 villages to Otto von Bergow and Boček II from Podiebrad .

After compulsory schooling was introduced at the end of the 18th century, the children from Brdo were initially educated in Richenburg . From 1815 school lessons took place in a chalet from Brdo. In 1823 a new single-storey schoolhouse was completed on the outskirts, in which the children from Doly, Hlubočice, Rabouň and Rvasice were also taught. The village had its own local judge .

In 1835 the rustic village of Brdo in the Chrudim district consisted of 25 houses in which 131 people lived. The school was under stately patronage. The parish was in Richenburg. Until the middle of the 19th century Brdo remained subordinate to the Richenburg rule.

After the abolition of patrimonial Brdo formed from 1849 a district of the municipality Doly in the judicial district Skuch . From 1868 the village belonged to the political district Hohenmauth . In 1869 Brdo had 144 inhabitants and consisted of 24 houses. The schoolhouse was expanded and stocked in 1883. In 1900 there were 184 people in Brdo, in 1910 there were 170. In 1930 the village had 152 inhabitants. 1961 Brdo was assigned to the Okres Chrudim. In the summer of 1964 the school closed; for a long time the schoolhouse then served as an external storage facility for the Chrudim state district archive. On January 1, 1981, Brdo was incorporated into Luže together with Doly. After 2000, the municipality of Luže sold the now vacant old school in Brdo. At the 2001 census, there were 50 people in the 27 houses in Brdo.
