history
Chroboly was founded at the beginning of the 14th century by the Sancta Corona monastery in the Strobole forest . The village was first mentioned in a document in 1317. After the monastery was destroyed in 1420, Chroboly fell to the Rosenbergs and became part of the Krumlov domain .
On May 31, 1808, a major fire destroyed 14 farms. The rectory, the school and the church could still be saved from the attack of the flames. In 1946 the German Bohemian residents of Chrobolys were expelled .
