history

Oberhaid was first mentioned in a document in 1278. The border town to the Duchy of Austria was founded by the Rosenbergs . Peter I von Rosenberg raised the place to a market town in 1504 and granted it privileges. This included holding a weekly market every Wednesday, as well as carrying a coat of arms. In 1554 and 1557 parts of the village burned down. In 1577 Oberhaid received the brewing license.

Oberhaid developed into a center of handicrafts and guilds were formed . Wilhelm von Rosenberg confirmed the founding of the blacksmiths guild in 1564 and his brother and successor Peter Wok von Rosenberg allowed butchers to do the same in 1597.

After the Thirty Years War Oberhaid came to the Buquoy . In 1674 Count Ferdinand Buquoy set up a customs post in the area to collect tolls from passing merchants. In 1738, parts of the village, including St. Michael's Church, burned down. The worst fire in the history of Oberhaid was that of 1772, which left the whole place in rubble and ashes.

On December 20, 1918, Oberhaid was the first Czechoslovakian place that President Tomáš Garrigue Masaryk passed on his return from exile and where he is said to have been greeted by the Czech ethnic group with the Czech national anthem . Because of its importance as a border town, the train station was expanded into a train station and received customs clearance. Since the Munich Agreement , the place belonged from 1938 to the district of Kaplitz in the Reichsgau Oberdonau of the German Empire . After the Second World War, the German Bohemia were out of the place sold .

On May 7, 2006, a border crossing for hikers to German Hörschlag was set up in Austria.
