history
The settlement was established in the 13th century and belonged to the Waldsassen monastery , which colonized the area. The name Markhausen is related to the location directly on the border with Germany opposite Klingenthal (Mark for border and Hausen for houses - "houses on the border"). The first documented mention of Markhausen comes from 1348 as part of the Schönbacher Ländchen ; in the later period the place went out again. The residents settled at the Markhausener Bach, one of the brooks from the Ursprungberg .
In 1608 Markhausen was re-established; the place is mentioned in 1715 on a map of the Elbogen district drawn by Adam Friedrich Zürner . The settlement then belonged to the neighboring town of Schönwerth . The residents found their livelihood in the manufacture of charcoal, in mining and in the hammer mills. 1610 Markhausen becomes a cadastral community. In 1847 Markhausen had 32 houses with 302 inhabitants, who now lived mainly from agriculture and the manufacture of lace.
In 1930 Markhausen was an industrial community in the Graslitz district with 143 houses and 1253 inhabitants, of which 1162 were Germans, 37 Czechs and 54 foreigners. There was a four-class school, the Hraničná volunteer fire brigade , post office, customs office, gendarmerie station, cinema, outdoor swimming pool, factory, craftsmen and traders. Social life took place in the six clubs and two music bands and mainly in the eight restaurants in the village. The favorable location on the border with Saxony ensured that Markhausen had lively traffic in trade and tourism. The main goal of the visitors was the aforementioned inns, where concerts and dance events took place; The "brown dog", the "realm border" and the "black cat" were well known. Between 1938 and 1945 the community belonged to the German district of Graslitz . In 1946 the German residents were expelled due to the Beneš decrees. In 1947 the village was given the new name Hraničná (for example, "Grenzdorf", an artificial name also found in other cases such as Paadorf ). Since the place was first repopulated with residents from the interior of Czechoslovakia, Markhausen had 220 residents in 1948. In 1955, however, the demolition of the village began in order, as elsewhere, to create an uninhabited border zone; access was forbidden until 1967.
In 1960 Hraničná was incorporated into Kraslice.
After the Velvet Revolution , the favorable location on the border with Germany was used for three new restaurants, three gas stations, some small supermarkets and an Asian market. The road between Klingenthal and Kraslice is free for cars and is used intensively.
