history

The origin of the place is still unclear, but it is assumed that it was built sometime in the 9th century. A Romanesque church was built around 1096. Hradište (literally: castle site) is mentioned in writing for the first time in 1232 as Haranenicha and belonged to a Christian order that spread Christianity in what was then the Kingdom of Hungary, and from 1424 to the Diocese of Neutra . Another mention comes from the year 1553, where 12 porta are given in a tax register of the place Hradyscha . The same document also claims the existence of a castle-like complex in 1406. After 1777 the place belonged to the Neutra chapter. In 1828 Hradište had 48 houses and 336 residents. The main sources of income for the population were agriculture, fruit growing and weaving.

After the collapse of Austria-Hungary in 1918 and the Treaty of Trianon, the place became part of Czechoslovakia.
