history
The village was first mentioned in a document in 1475. According to a chronicle by Hermann Jakob from 1992, the place name is said to be derived from a Celtic naming of Droissaw and was first mentioned in 1387 by a lending document from King Wenceslaus IV of Bohemia. A takeover of the name by the Bohemian noble family Drasowský from 1475 by the German settlers is assumed.
Due to the structural structure of the place and ethnological characteristics, the place was probably settled by Thuringians at the end of the 12th century. In contrast to the Bavarian round villages in the south of the Egerland, Dražov is a street village that suggests the first German immigration from Thuringia in the 12th century. The inhabitants lived from agriculture, trade, crafts and mining. The Catholic parish church in Dražov is the symbol of the place.
After the abolition of patrimonial rule, the political community Trossau / Trosova in the Karlsbad district was established in 1850. In 1896 the community was assigned to the Teplá district . In 1930 Trossau had 803 inhabitants. As a result of the Munich Agreement , the municipality was added to the German Reich in 1938. Trossau belonged to the district of Tepl until 1945 and had only 641 inhabitants after the forced resettlement of the Czechs in 1939. After the Second World War, the German residents were expelled and their houses were taken over by Czech and Slovak resettlers. A small part of the German population was able to stay in Dražov. Many of the abandoned houses fell into disrepair and were demolished. In 1991 the place had 77 inhabitants. In 2001 the village consisted of 30 houses in which 94 people lived.
