history

The first written mention of the village and the fortress Cehnice took place in 1342 as the seat of Rudolf of Říčany and Cehnice, who is considered the progenitor of the Cehnice of voníčany family. He was followed in 1357 by his four sons Oldřich, Svojše, Jan and Bohuslav Sestřínek. Subsequent owners included the dean of the Moldauthein Bušek Cehnice chapter of Říčany, who sold his income from Cehnice in 1419 for the benefit of the Radomyšl parish . Mikuláš Cehnice from Říčany added the Cehnice manor to the Stiekna manor belonging to his uncle before 1475 . In the same year Zachař Cehnice von ugíčany, together with his son Mikuláš, transferred the income due to the parish Radomyšl to the municipality of Nevčelice. In 1540, at the request of Heralt Kavka von Städtíčany , Emperor Ferdinand I elevated Cehnice to a town. At the same time, he granted the town a coat of arms, the right to seal with green wax and the privileges for two annual and one weekly market. After Heralt's death, Cehnice was separated from Stiekna when the rule was divided in 1563. The stronghold of Cehnice became the seat of his son Jan Kavka from Říčany, who owned ten other villages in addition to the farm and the town of Cehnice. He died in 1577 and left behind an underage son of the same name. He later balanced himself with his mother Katharina over her morning gift. In 1601 he granted Cehnice further privileges with the approval of Emperor Rudolf II . He sold the property in 1602 to the guardians of Zdeněk Jan Říčanský von Říčany, who reunited Cehnice with Stiekna. From 1610 several changes of ownership took place, after the battle of the White Mountain the lordship belonging to Jan Malovec von Malovice was confiscated and later sold to Ursula von Kolowrat . 1648 immigrant from Switzerland to Bohemia nobles acquired in January Anton Losy of Losinthal the rule Stiekna with the associated villages Řepice , Mladějovice, Přešťovice , Čejetice , Droužetice , Přeborovice, Brusy, Cehnice, Dunovice, Netonice, Radějovice , Paračov, Kuřimeny , Sudkovice and Černěkov by Johann Anton Prince of Eggenberg . After his death in 1682 his son Johann Baptist Štěkeň inherited. He died in 1683 and his brother Johann Anton Losy von Losinthal took over the inheritance . In 1720 he handed over his estate Štěkeň to his son Adam Philipp . After Adam Philipp Count Losy von Losinthal died on April 21, 1781 in Vienna without heirs, his widow Ernestine Countess Fuchs von Bimbach inherited the rule. In the same year she sold the property to Joseph-Niklas zu Windisch-Graetz . He was followed in 1802 by his children Alfred , Veriand, Eulalia and Adelheid. In the following year, Alfred zu Windisch-Graetz also acquired the Stiekna estate from his siblings in the Family Fideikommiss Tachau .

In 1840 the village Zehnitz / Cehnice or Čehnice on Budweiser Straße consisted of 105 houses with 658 inhabitants. In the village there was an old uninhabited castle, a private school with a teacher maintained by the community, a farmyard, a mutton farm, an official retreat and an emphyteutic mill. The one-tier forest house Manuch lay apart. The parish was Parachev . Until the middle of the 19th century, the village of the allodial rule Stiekna and the Mladiegowitz estate remained subject.
