history
The village was first mentioned in a document in 1359 in the country table. Owners of the village belonging to the Bydžov manor were the Wartenbergs until 1516 . Subsequently, Wilhelm II. Von Pernstein became the owner of Humburky. He was followed in 1519 by Ulrich Homberg von Homberg, at whose time a festival was established that was extinguished during the Thirty Years' War. From 1525 Jan Humburský von Bydžov was named as the owner. In 1548 Jiří von Černín acquired the village, which was thus separated from the Bydžov rule. Subsequently, the owners of the Humburky estate changed often. Among them were u. a. the Žehušický from Nestajov. After 1600 the village was divided. In 1627 the part belonging to Adam Kaspar Vančura from Anteilehnice including the fortress was confiscated, the other part was owned by Count Wratislaw von Mitrowitz . In 1651 Jiří Štastný von Řehnice reunited both parts. In 1662 Václav Jindřich Odkolek from Újezd bought the estate. Between 1678 and 1690 the Hubryk von Hennersdorf, then the Counts von Věžník, owned Humburky. In the second half of the 17th century the new fortress was built. After the Lords of Vlkanov had acquired the village and attached it to the Velký Barchov rule in 1748 , the fortress remained unused. After 1800 the Vlkanov family died out in the male line. The new owners of Humburky were the Counts Straka von Königsfeld .
After the abolition of patrimonial formed Humburk / Humburk 1850 a town in the district Nový Bydžov . After 1850 the Richter family acquired the property in Humburk, which they expanded to include the Osek mill on the Cidlina and the Venturka forest on the Chlum. In 1867, a major fire destroyed parts of the village. In the same year, Ferdinand Richter had a castle built on the foundation walls of the new fortress. In 1898 he was ennobled by Emperor Franz Josef I as Ferdinand Richter von Burgbrücken. In 1912 Richter ran into financial difficulties and moved to Vienna. Humburky bought the Prague banker's wife Marie Trnková, from whom Richard Procházka bought it in 1917. Between 1924 and 1925, the married couple Vincenc Junek and Eliška Junková owned the property in Humburky.
Since 1961 the municipality of Humburky belongs to the Okres Hradec Králové. The Czech Warmblood horse breed has been bred in Humburky since 1967 . Josef Dymeš from Měník took part in the European and World Championships between 1984 and 1990 with his four-in-hand from Humburk breeding. After 1989 the property was restituted to the Evžen Jiránek von Kozojídky family. Since 2000 there has been a New Year's Eve procession to the Chapel of St. Salvator instead.
