The place is laid out as a Linsenangerdorf .

history

The place was founded in 1255 by the German Order of Knights . In the Czernin-Urbar from 1654 it is recorded that the place consisted of 29 houses. The Tieberschlag complex and the Ui dialect (northern Bavarian) spoken until 1945 with its special Bavarian passwords indicate a settlement by Bavarian German tribes from the Upper Palatinate region, as they did after 1050, but especially in 12/13. Century took place.

From 1693 Hosterschlag belonged to the Königseck rule. The place remained under this rule until 1848. The registers have been kept in the village since 1787. From 1856 the place is its own parish. Before that, Hosterschlag was parish in Telsch and later in Blauenschlag. During the German-Austrian War , in 1866, the place was occupied by Prussian troops who brought in cholera. In 1893 a volunteer fire brigade was founded. When the local railway from Neubistritz to Neuhaus was built in 1899, the town received a train station. For the 60th anniversary of the reign of Emperor Franz Joseph in 1908, the students planted oak trees. The inhabitants of the place lived from the cattle, forestry and agriculture, whereby the viticulture played no role in the place due to the unfavorable climate. In addition to small businesses, there was a Raiffeisenkasse, two mills and two weaving factories.

In 1910, 98% of the residents were German-speaking. In 1919 Člunek / Hosterschlag became part of Czechoslovakia . As a result of the Munich Agreement , the place became part of the German Reichsgau Niederdonau on October 1, 1938 . In World War II, 39 local residents were killed. From May 30, 1945, the German population was expelled. Five people died. 25 people remained in the place. The local residents expelled to Austria were transferred to Germany with the exception of 5 families in accordance with the Potsdam Agreement . In 1960 the neighboring towns of Kunějov ( Kunas ) and Lomy ( Tieberschlag ) were incorporated.

The municipality of Člunek consists of the districts Člunek ( Hosterschlag ), Kunějov ( Kunas ) and Lomy ( Tieberschlag ), which also form cadastral districts. The settlement Kunějovský Dvůr ( Kunaser Hof ) and the desert Stárka ( Starka ) also belong to Člunek .

regional customs

Rich customs determined the annual course of German local residents:

• If a young girl died, a girl with a wedding dress and a myrtle wreath walked in front of the coffin. The coffin itself was also carried by girls and behind it was a girl in a black dress with a broken candle.

• A legend from Hosterlitz speaks of forest women. When a child is born, they try to steal it and put their own in the manger. These misshapen children have misshapen heads and never learn to speak. Therefore the mother hardly ever leaves the room before she has received the village blessing in the church.

• In the area, the place was called "Hausterschloh".
