history

The village was first mentioned in documents in 1251 as the property of Vladiken Dobcz von Bukovník. Its seat, the Bukovník Fortress, was strategically located in today's parish fields above the church, offering a clear view of the surrounding valleys. In addition to the village and the Bukovník fortress, the Bukovník estate also included the village of Prašivá with another fortress and a farm, which died out during the Hussite Wars . The Vladiken von Bukovník, who had a lattice in their coat of arms, were replaced in the 14th century by an unknown knight family whose coat of arms was decorated with two buffalo horns. At the end of the 14th century, the Hořčicky brothers from Prosty on Mačice also acquired the Bukovník and Damíč estates. Jan Hořčicky from Prosty became notorious as a robber baron , in 1520 an army from the surrounding towns burned down his fortress Damíč including the farm and the village. The next owners were the Březský from Ploskovice, in 1629 Zdeněk Ježovský from Luby on Kalenice and his wife Sophia Dorothea Boryně from Lhota followed . There was also a court yard for the nobleman of Maroušek in Bukovník . The Bukovník parish was abolished after the Battle of White Mountain and the church became a branch of the Nezamyslice parish . From 1679 the goods belonged to Collator von Říčany . In the 1680s half the village and the Freihof burned down; the big fire also hit the church, with the steeple bursting into two parts. Sebastian Collator sold the property to the Lords of Malowetz , later followed by the Lords of Schönthal ( Šintál ) and the Baron of Garmont. He sold the Mačice manor in 1845 to the glass manufacturer Josef Taschenk, who had a manorial court built in Bukovník. In 1832, cholera broke out in Bukovník . Until the middle of the 19th century, the village remained subordinate to the Mačice manor, one house belonged to the Schichowitz Fideikommissherrschaft .

After the abolition of patrimonial Bukovník / Bukownik formed a community in the judicial district of Schüttenhofen from 1850. From 1868 the community belonged to the district of Schüttenhofen . In the same year the new rectory was inaugurated. The volunteer fire brigade was founded in 1881. After the death of Hubertaschek, the large estate of the Taschenk family passed to other owners in 1912. In the course of the abolition of the Okres Sušice, Bukovník was assigned to the Okres Klatovy in 1960. Between 1980 and 1992 the village was incorporated into Soběšice . The Bukovník municipality has existed again since January 1st, 1993.
