history
The village was first mentioned in 1229 as the property of the Benedictine monastery Tyniec (later the monastery in Orlau was built ). The monastery ran a fortified farm in Chotěbuz. After the dissolution of the monastery in the 15th century, the monastery courtyard became an independent estate and in 1447 was attached to the rule of Freistadt .
In 1559 the Duke of Teschen gave Wenzel III. the estate to his chancellor Wenzel Rudzky von Rudz. He had the courtyard expanded into a fortified castle. Chotěbuz remained the seat of the Rudzky von Rudz family until 1701. After numerous changes of ownership, Karl Josef Freiherr Trach von Březí acquired the castle in 1771 . In 1802 the Teschener Kammer acquired the Kotzobendzer property.
After the abolition of patrimonial Kotzobendz formed a community in the Teschen district from 1850 . In 1871 the first German agricultural school opened in the castle. After the collapse of the Austro-Hungarian monarchy, the ethnic border between Poland and Czechoslovakia was first drawn. Because of the large Polish population, Poland also claimed the Olsa area and the Polish-Czechoslovak border war broke out . From 1920 the place belonged to the Český Těšín district. After the Munich Agreement , Kocobędz was annexed to Poland in 1938 and joined the German Reich the following year after the occupation of Poland. Until 1945 Kotzobends belonged to the district of Teschen and returned to Czechoslovakia after the end of the war.
After the dissolution of the Okres Český Těšín, the place came to the Okres Karviná at the beginning of 1961. In 1975 it was incorporated into Český Těšín . Since 1998, Chotěbuz has been an independent municipality again.
67% of the inhabitants of Chotebuz are Czechs, the strongest national minority are Poles with 27%.
