Cetnov ( German  Zettendorf , formerly also Gäindorf and Czettendorf ) is a district of the city of Cheb in the Czech Republic .

history

In the 12th century, Zettendorf was known as "Tsainturf" and was a fortified ministerial seat of the Waldsassen monastery in Nordgau and was owned by the Knights of Hohenberg , who expanded the residence into a castle with towers. When Abbot Eberhart von Waldsassen gave Ulrich von Bischofsgrün the desolate village of Putzenreuth as a fief in return for payment of 2½ talents in 1221 , one of the witnesses on the document was Berthold von Zettendorf. In 1312 the castle was owned by Heinrich and Friedrich von Zettendorf. The associated village was on a steep hill on the left bank of the Eger .

In 1322 Czettendorf was on the list of pledged places of the Egerland to Bohemia and was separated from Nordgau . According to the claw tax book of the city of Eger from 1392, the place had 10 taxable farmers and the model book from 1395 according to 16 men liable for military service. One of the old families was the Sölch (also Soelch, Salech and similar). A large part of the local peasants were subordinate to the local population through the centuries; Her forced labor ended in 1772, the interest payments to the feudal lord with the peasants' liberation in 1848.

In 1462, during the Bavarian War, Bohemian troops burned down the castle and the houses in Zettendorf. In the devastated castle area there were farms and the patrician family Schneider from Eger , who had lived on the Zettendorf estate since 1463 , had a castle built. The triangular tower of the castle with a side length of eight meters and massive stone collar walls was preserved in the courtyard of the farmhouse no.10 until 1892, as did a smaller tower that stood in courtyard no.8. The fountain of the castle with a side length of three and a half meters and the engraved date 1510 provides drinking water to this day. The ownership of the Zettendorf castle and estate came from the Schneider family to a Ort family. In 1584 Paul Ort sold Zettendorf to the magistrate of the city of Eger, which was Evangelical Lutheran from around 1555 to 1631. After 1584 it was bought by the Eger patricians Pachelbel, with whom the property remained until 1631 and was sold on during the re-Catholicization of the city of Eger.

After the political and social upheavals through the liberation of the peasants from inheritance in 1848, Zettendorf formed a district of the municipality of Mühlbach (Pomezí nad Ohří) . The village was schooled and parish there. In March 1892, a major fire destroyed courtyards 7, 8, 9, 10 and 11. The towers of the former castle, which were in danger of collapsing, were removed and used as building material. It took years until the burned down farms were rebuilt and the place recovered economically.

In 1925 and 1926, Zettendorf in Czechoslovakia was given a road connection to Pirk and Mühlbach, and in 1930 a water pipe with house connections, the elevated tank of which stood on the edge of the Kammerwald. A power station was built next to the wood mill to provide electricity to households. The inflation of 1923, the economic crisis of 1928 to 1930 and the associated unemployment in the Egerland brought difficult times for the residents of Zettendorf.

From 1938 until the end of the Second World War in May 1945, Zettendorf belonged to the German Empire in the Reichsgau Sudetenland and was in the district of Eger . Due to the Beneš decrees of Czechoslovakia , the Germans in Zettendorf were expropriated in 1945 and 1946 and forced to leave the place. The families found a home in Bavaria as displaced persons . Much of the buildings in Zettendorf fell into disrepair, but the place remained and was called Cetnov in the Czech language . House number 13 is a community center. A half-timbered house from Egerland has been preserved. In 1965 Cetnov was incorporated into Cheb. Today Cetnov is located in a local recreation area of ​​the city of Cheb on an approximately nine-kilometer-long reservoir of the Skalka dam , the dam of which was built between 1961 and 1964 at the height of the Staufer imperial castle in Eger. The reservoir covers the floodplains near Cetnov up to the abandoned village of Markhausen on the border with the Upper Palatinate .
