history

The oldest news about the village dates from 1350. Německé Hory was first mentioned in writing in 1378, when King Charles IV pledged part of the Frauenberg rule with the town of Lišov and the surrounding villages to Johann Khun von Liechtenberg . At that time the rural village consisted of six noble estates and one free estate .

During the Hussite Wars , Oselno belonged again to the Frauenberg lordship, and the lords of Lobkowitz owned the pledge . Georg von Podiebrad released the pledged rule again. After his death, Frauenberg was given to various owners, including Wilhelm II von Pernstein from 1490 onwards , as pledges. In 1550 silver mining began on the Elias treasure trove. In 1562 King Ferdinand I sold the dominions of Frauenberg and Protivín to Joachim von Neuhaus . Three years later, his son Adam inherited the property. After he tried to curtail the old privileges of his subjects, a peasant uprising broke out in Hory in 1581. Thereupon Emperor Rudolf II reaffirmed the old freedoms. In 1598 Joachim Ulrich von Neuhaus sold the rule to his creditor Bohuslav Malovec from Malovice on Dříteň . At the time of Emperor Rudolf II, the St. Elias factory reached its economic boom and produced 1,600 quintals of pure silver annually.

In 1617 the village consisted of 28 properties, including six Ganzhüfners, seven Dreiviertelhüfners, five Halbhüfners and four Chalupers. Because of the participation in the class uprising in 1618, the goods of the Malovec von Malovice were confiscated after the battle of the White Mountain and the rule was transferred to Baltasar of Marradas in 1623, who had them recatholized. Bartolomäus von Marradas sold the rule on October 1, 1661 to Johann Adolf I von Schwarzenberg . In 1678 J. Bergl and Adolf Ranager began to exploit an anthracite deposit west of the village . From 1685 the village was under the lower jurisdiction of the judge of Libnitsch. The St. Elias mine was closed in 1725. When the house numbers were introduced in 1785, the place consisted of 42 houses and had 352 inhabitants. Since 1786 the village is parish after Libnitsch . In the same year, a guardroom was opened at the anthracite mine. The first village school was established in 1788. In 1840 Hur / Hurr consisted of 41 houses with 351 residents. There was an inn in the village. The parish was Libnitsch. Until the middle of the 19th century, the village was always subject to the Frauenberg rule.

After the abolition of patrimonial rule , the market town of Adamstädtel and the villages of Hur / Hurr , Gieben and Woselno were formed in 1848, which from 1850 belonged to the Budweis district and the judicial district of Lischau . In 1878 a separate cemetery was consecrated in Hurr. In 1890 the village consisted of 69 houses and had 438 inhabitants. Gieben and Woselno broke away from Hur in 1891. In 1899 the volunteer fire brigade was formed. In the same year, the local trades consolidated into the Rudolfstadt ore mining union based in Budweis, which was dissolved in 1944. The Schwarzenberg mine, which was reopened in 1899 and formerly called St. Elias, was closed in 1909 due to exhaustion. In 1910 there were 1206 Czechs and 52 Germans in the market town of Hůry / Hurr, and 513 Czechs and ten Germans in the district of the same name.

As a result of centuries of mining, most of the wells dried up. The only drinking water well is the Štůle , which draws its water from the St. Elias pit at a depth of four meters via the Elias hereditary tunnel . Before the Adamov-Hůry waterworks were built, which has supplied Adamov and the eastern part of Hůry since 1911, the residents of Adamov had to get their drinking water from the Štůle well, one kilometer away . In 1920, 464 people lived in Hurr's 74 houses. In 1922, the municipality rejected an offer from Jihočeské elektrotechnické montážní dílny "Elma", spol. SRO Hluboká nad Vltavou to build a power supply. Adamov broke away from Hůry in May 1922, so that the rights as a minority town again passed to Adamov. After mining was stopped, and various plans that had never been realized were submitted to revive it , the municipality assumed the Elias Stollenwasser in 1927. Since then, the tunnel has been used to supply drinking water to Hůry and the city of České Budějovice. In 1940 Hůry was connected to the electricity network. On March 24, 1943, Jivno, Libníč and Jelmo were incorporated, this was repealed after the end of the Second World War. In 1958 Hůry had grown to 102 houses and had 338 residents. On January 1, 1976 it was incorporated into Rudolfov . After a referendum, Hůry broke away from Rudolfov on November 24, 1990 and formed its own community.
