history

The first documentary mention was made in 1351 under the name "Chwaliczin". A later spelling is "Qweliczen". The layout of the place and the northern Bavarian "ui" dialect , which was spoken until 1945, suggests that the inhabitants of the place came from the Upper Palatinate, which distinguishes them from the areas of Znaim and Nikolsburg further east . The settlement is likely in 12/13. Century.

Although Reformation Anabaptists settled in the village, Wilhelm von Slawata demanded a return to the Catholic faith in 1602 after taking over the rule. All who refused had to emigrate. The Thirty Years War destroyed 21 of the 34 properties in town. The parish registers of the place to be in since 1647 Zlabings out. The town's first school was founded in 1784, and the children from Slawathen and Wenzelsdorf were also enrolled in Qualitzen. In 1790 a large fire destroyed numerous houses. The inhabitants of Qualitzen lived from forestry, livestock and agriculture, whereby due to the climate and the nature of the soil, viticulture, which was important further east, played no role. In addition to various types of grain, potatoes, beets and rape were also grown in the fields. In addition to a modest small business, there were two brick factories in the village.

After the First World War , the multi-ethnic state Austria-Hungary disintegrated . The Treaty of Saint-Germain 1919 declared the place, of which 97% of the inhabitants belonged to the German language group in 1910, as part of the new Czechoslovak Republic . In the interwar period, new settlers and the filling of civil servants led to an increased influx of people of Czech nationality. After the Munich Agreement , German troops in the village marched in October 1938, which until 1945 the county Waidhofen an der Thaya in Gau Lower Danube belonged.

After the end of the World War , the territories transferred to Germany in the Munich Agreement came back to Czechoslovakia . On June 7, 1945, the place was occupied by a busy group of militant Czechs, at the same time and system as the surrounding communities. It has taken some hostages and the German local population across the border to Austria sold . The hostages were then evicted. A local resident died as a result of severe abuse. Four people remained in the village. Due to the Beneš decree 108, the property of the German residents as well as the public and church German property were confiscated and placed under state administration.
