history
The place was first mentioned in 1273 as Spitersgrün . The foundation is associated with the blessed Hroznata († 1217), who founded the Teplá Abbey in 1193 , to whose property the place initially belonged. Due to numerous ore deposits (silver, iron and tin), the place developed into a city. Lichtenstadt came to the Count Schlick , later to the House of Sachsen-Lauenburg, the Margraves of Baden and the Grand Duke of Tuscany. Until the abolition of the patrimonial jurisdiction in 1848/49 Lichtenstadt belonged to the rule Schlackenwerth .
In 1832 the municipal town of Lichtenstadt had over 1000 inhabitants, including 163 Christian and 37 Jewish houses, which are active in agriculture, trade and commerce. With the decline in mining, mechanical engineering, the leather and shoe industry and tourism developed. On December 1, 1930, Lichtenstadt had 1971 inhabitants, on May 17, 1939, there were 856 residents on May 22, 1947.
After the First World War , Lichtenstadt was added to the newly created Czechoslovakia in 1919 . Due to the Munich Agreement of 1938 came to place the German Empire and belonged until 1945 to district Carlsbad , Region of Eger , in the Reich District of Sudetenland . A compulsory collection camp for Jews was operated in Edersgrün between May 1939 and 1942.
At the end of the Second World War , Lichtenstadt was taken over by Czechoslovakia. After the expulsion of the German residents and the associated reduction in the number of residents, the city rights were lost. One of the oldest Jewish cemeteries in Bohemia is located near the village.
Since January 23, 2007 Hroznětín is a town again.
