history

The place was settled by German settlers from Lower Austria at the end of the 11th century. The place was first mentioned in 1320 as a fief of the Olomouc bishopric . Later Dešná became part of the Pullitz rule . In 1494 the construction of the church started. The place is marked on the maps of Moravia by Paulus Fabricius (1575) and Johann Amos Comenius (1627).

During the Reformation the place becomes Protestant. Only after the victory of the imperial troops in the battle of the White Mountain , at the beginning of the Thirty Years' War , the place was re-Catholicized in the Counter-Reformation until 1638. As early as 1625, a school class was occupied in the village. From the same year the registers are kept in the village. The children from the neighborhoods of Dantschowitz, Lospitz, Plospitz and Zoppanz went to school in Döschen. From 1633 the place name was "Deschen" until in 1846 the now known "Döschen" became naturalized. In 1785 a large fire destroyed parts of the village and the church.

After the First World War , the place, whose inhabitants were 88% German-speaking in 1910, came to the Czechoslovak Republic . With the Munich Agreement in 1938, the place was incorporated into the German Reich and part of the Reichsgau Niederdonau . From 1938 to 1945, Döschen formed the large community of Döschen with 5 other communities.

In World War II, 16 inhabitants died. On June 7, 1945, Döschen was occupied by Czech militias and the Germans expelled . 39 Döscheners were able to stay in Austria. All others were transferred to Bavaria, Baden-Württemberg and Hesse.

After 1945 the place Dantschowitz became a district of Döschen. 1976 Chvalkovice including Županovice was incorporated. The main town Dešná consisted of 99 houses in 2007 and had 302 inhabitants.

Say from the place

There is a Marterl on the way from Döschen to Zoppanz. People tell each other that there is a treasure to be found in this place. But you have to be here at the witching hour and pray the Lord's Prayer from back to front. One day some young fellows tried to carry out this plan. At midnight they started digging and praying. When the last word was spoken, an eerie roar set in, which swelled to a hellish roar and ended with a clap of thunder. The boys were scared and ran back to the village without turning around. One of the boys lost his mind on this.
