history

The village was laid out as a street village during the colonization period and was the seat of the Lords of Dražovice. After the death of Bruno von Dražovice, his property fell back to Margrave Karl . This gave Dražovice on August 22, 1341 the Benedictine monastery Pustiměř , which did not keep the property long. Due to its location on the trade route from Brno to Hungary, Dražovice experienced a heyday in the 14th century and was elevated to a town. In addition to the toll law, Dražovice also had the embarrassing jurisdiction. In 1368 Dražovice belonged to Frank von Kunowitz, who exchanged it together with Nenkovice and Schönhof with the brothers Stephan and Witek von Ungersberg for half of Kunovice and Langdorf. A little later Witek von Ungersberg exchanged the villages with Přech von Uhřice for Uhřice . He sold Dražovice together with Schönhof and the desert Bohutice to Paul von Hohlenstein . Wok III. von Hohlenstein sold Dražovice and the desolate villages of Schönhof and Bohutice to the Bohunek and Mirko von Smrzan brothers in 1386. The latter, who in the meantime called himself von Chlum, wrote over the income from the town and the festivals to his wife Hedwig in 1397. In 1464 Diwisch von Chlum went with Mikuláš Bystřice from Ojnice to Uhřice in community of property. In 1511, Tas von Ojnice sold the town with the fortress, mill, farm, the Bohutice desert and part of the toll in Bohuslavice in exchange for the fortress and the town of Bučovice with the villages of Marefy, Uhřice and the desert Soběbřichy to Mikuláš Kropáč from Nevědomí. He inherited Heralt von Kunstadt and Johann von Kunowitz, who left Dražovice to Niklas von Zástřizl in 1524 . His son Sigmund sold Dražovice in 1535 to Ctibor von Wranowa. This united the goods Dražovice and Archlebov . In 1548 Beneš Krčma von Koněpas bought the property. In 1598 Jan Krčma von Koněpas sold the town of Dražovice with the ponds, vineyards and the toll for 8000 Moravian guilders to the owner of the Steinitz estate , Ulrich von Kaunitz . The Lords of Kaunitz held Steinitz until the Thirty Years' War and were then expropriated for participating in the class uprising. The Liechtensteiners became new owners . In the course of its history the place was also called Dražowitz , Klein Dražowitz , Unter Dražowitz , Dražowicžky and finally Dražůvky . In 1790 Dražůvky consisted of 50 houses and had 258 inhabitants. In 1834 349 people lived in the 62 houses in the market town. South of Dražůvky, the Trkmanka was dammed into a large fish pond until the 19th century. Dražůvky always remained submissive to Steinitz until the middle of the 19th century.

After the abolition of patrimonial Dražůvky / Drazuwek formed from 1850 a market town in the district authority of Gaya and the judicial district of Steinitz . In 1890 a new school building was built, in which Emperor Franz Joseph I contributed with a donation of 100 guilders. 1906 began the construction of the 26 km long railway line Čejč – Ždánice east of the village , which was opened in 1908. After the Okres Kyjov was abolished, the place was assigned to the Okres Hodonín in 1960. In 1998, passenger transport on the Čejč – Ždánice railway line was discontinued and the section between Uhřice and Ždánice was completely closed in 2006.
