history

Davle was one of the 31 villages of John the Baptist consecrated Benedictine monastery Insula and was first mentioned in a document in connection with its foundation in 999. In the second half of the 13th century, gold mining began between Davle and Štěchovice , especially on Medník. The main centers of gold panning were the Bojovský potok and Jílovský potok valleys.

After the monastic economic and trading center of Sekanka was destroyed in 1278 by the Brandenburg troops of Otto IV , the monastery superiors expanded Davle into the center of the monastery district. In 1310, Davle was referred to as a town in a bull by Clemens V. It had a coat of arms and had market rights. Both the location on the Vltava as an important waterway and the trade routes along the river were advantageous. The rafting on the Vltava and the Sasau was also important for the development of the place. After the outbreak of the Hussite Wars , the insurgent troops occupied Hvozdnice in 1420 and shot at the monastery with stone cans ( Houfnice ) from the hill now known as Žižkův vrch . On August 14, 1420, the Hussites, led by the priest Václav Koranda , conquered, looted and destroyed the monastery. In 1421 Jakoubek von Řitka took possession of the Davle market and the Bojanovice , Hvozdnice, Slapy , Sloup and Zahořany estates . King Sigismund left this Davle hereditary in 1436. Insula Monastery never recovered. In 1517 the last Benedictines left the ruined monastery and moved to the daughter monastery of St. Johann under the rock . The abandoned monastery Insula was completely destroyed by the Vltava flood of 1529. The abbot of the St. Johann monastery under the rock, Matthäus Ferdinand Sobek von Bilenberg , bought Davle back from the von Řitka family in 1657, along with other villages. After the abolition of the St. Johann unter dem Felsen monastery in 1785, the monastery property fell to the religious fund. On January 3, 1825, Karl Korb Ritter von Weidenheim ( Karel Bedřich Srb ) auctioned the Davle estate with all its accessories and combined it with the Slapy estate that was acquired at the same time to form the Slapy estate . In 1816 the parish school was moved from St. Kilian to Davle.

In 1845 the Dawle estate in the Berauner district included the subordinate market Dawle and the villages of St. Kilian ( Svatý Kilián ), Bojanowitz , Hwoznitz , Masetschin ( Masečín ) and Slaup ( Sloup ). The Dawle or Dawel market consisted of 71 houses with 517 inhabitants, including five Jewish families. In Dawle there was a parish school, a stately brewery, a stately river house , a mill with a board saw and two taverns. The three chalets of Luhy and a stately brick hut lay apart. There was a market judge in Dawle . A large part of the population lived from trade, with 22 potteries working in Dawle. The parish was St. Kilian ( Kilián ). Until the middle of the 19th century, the Dawle market remained subject to the Dawle estate, which was part of the Schlapp rule.

After the abolition of patrimonial Davle formed with the districts Měchenice, Svatý Kilián and Sloup from 1850 a market town in the judicial district of Zbraslav . From 1868 the market belonged to the Smichow district . In 1891 Friedrich Graf von Westphalen zu Fürstenberg acquired the large estate. In 1900 the railway line Čerčany – Vrané nad Vltavou started traffic. In 1905 a road bridge was built over the Vltava, previously three ferries ran across the river between Svatý Kilián and Mandát, between Davle and Libřice and between Davle and Sázava. In 1917 Theobald von Westphalen zu Fürstenberg sold the Sloup estate to Jan and Václav Matysov from Nové Hraštice and the Slapy estate to Bohumil Bondy. In 1927 Davle was assigned to the Okres Praha-venkov. In 1932 the Městys Davle (with Měchenice, Sloup, Svatý Kilián) had 1560 inhabitants, there were u. a. catholic church and a synagogue. Because of the construction of the Vrané hydropower plant , the Vltava bridge had to be raised in the middle by one and a half meters in 1934 so that steamships could continue to pass through. From 1942 Davle belonged to Okres Praha-venkov-jih and from 1949 to Okres Praha-jih. In 1948 Davle lost his status as Městys. Svatý Kilián lost the status of a district in the 1950s. Since 1961 Davle belongs to Okres Praha-západ and Měchenice became an independent municipality. On July 1, 1968, Sázava I, which had previously belonged to the municipality of Petrov , was reorganized . In 1968 the film Die Brücke von Remagen was shot on the Vltava Bridge . In 1991 the new road bridge was built. In 2002 Davle was hit by the Vltava flood. Since 2008 Davle has been a Městys again .
