history

Archaeological finds during the construction of the road from Vrčení show settlement during the Neolithic and Hallstatt periods . In the 10th century there was a fortified Slavnikid castle near Choťánky and, after their extinction in 995, the Vršovci .

The first written record of Chotětice comes from 1345. At that time the village belonged to the Poděbrady domain. The fortress located in the village was a feud of Poděbrady Castle . In the 15th century, probably during the Hussite siege of Podebrady in 1426, the fortress fell into desolation and was later given the name Kočičí hrádek ( Katzenburg ). Until the abolition of patrimonial Chotětice remained almost always under the Poděbrady rule. The lands belonging to Katzenburg were divided up, farms laid out and the festivals removed. In the 18th century, the current name Choťánky became common. From 1850 Choťánky formed a municipality in the Poděbrady district . In 1900 the place consisted of 77 houses and had 419 inhabitants. On January 1, 1961, the community came to Okres Nymburk.

There is a golf course west of Cho Chánky.
