history
The first written mention of Cotkytle comes from the year 1350. The place name Zackiecel or Zockicel is borrowed from the word Zottkittel (hairy smock).

Both places originally belonged to the Hohenstadt rule, while the later parts of the municipality Laudon and Herbortice then belonged to the Landskron rule.
After the Munich Agreement , the place was added to the German Empire and belonged to the Hohenstadt district until 1945 .
