In 1487 Gottschallings, which was derived from "Gottschalk", was first mentioned in the land register of the Landstein manor. In the course of the centuries the name changes, so the place is called in 1588 "Kossczalkow", 1599 "Kottschalkow" and 1719 "Gotschalling". The current spelling has been used since 1842. Distinction from the lower Austrian village of the same name "Kottschallings". The population of Gottschallings lived from growing rye, wheat, oats and potatoes as well as from the domestic industry (weaving and knitting). There were also two businesses (brickworks and mills). The registers have been kept at Altstadt since 1668.

After the First World War , the multi-ethnic state Austria-Hungary disintegrated and the village became part of Czechoslovakia .

After the end of the Second World War - which claimed 19 victims among the local residents - the territories transferred to Germany in the Munich Agreement were reassigned to Czechoslovakia .
