history

The area was settled in the 11th century. In 1233 the Borek forest was also mentioned in a border document about the possessions of the Seelau monastery . The forest north-west of today's village on the Goldbach (Martinický potok) formed the north-western border of the monastic rule. The Kočičí hrádek manor was built between the 13th and 14th centuries, and it became extinct in the first half of the 15th century. The first mention of the village Košetice took place in 1352 in the papal tithe register through the payment of the priest Hermann for the property. In 1360, when the successor of pastor Hermann was introduced, the Vladiken Jan and Bohuněk of Košetice were named as the owners of Košetice. As the last pastor before the Hussite Wars, Kříž from Křešín is recorded in 1417. After 1420, Domaslav Košetický, the Vladiken family of Košetický of Košetice, probably went out. The freedman Šimek Kozel called Košetický, who owned Vyklantice at the end of the 16th century and later also acquired the goods Horka and Onšov , did not come from this family. His descendants who carried the predicate Košetický z Horek also carried the completely different coat of arms. Košetický z Horek never owned Košetice.

Under the Vojslavský of Vojslavice, who owned Košetice between 1440 and 1453, the estate was attached to the Hořepník - Loutkov rule . They were followed by Messrs Trčka von Lípa on Lipnice and Pelhřimov until 1596 . In 1596 Mikuláš bought Beřkovský ze Šebířova and had a fortress built northwest of the church on the old road to Buřenice . In 1615 he transferred the property to his wife Anna Juliane von Arnstadt . After the death of Mikuláš Beřkovský, who fell in the battle of the White Mountain , in 1623 the property of the Beřkovský was confiscated. The Catholic Anna Juliane Beřkovský was able to buy back Košetice in 1624 with her own dowry. 1639 inherited her daughter Johanna Eusebia Beřkovský ze Svárova and her second husband Johann Ignaz Zucker von Tannfeld Košetice. Other owners were the son Wenzel Johann von Svárov and between 1660 and 1672 Karl Maximilian Paris von Lodron . In 1670 a parish administration was set up again in Košetice, which since the end of the 17th century has been looked after mainly by the Premonstratensian Brothers from Seelau . In 1672 Count Caretto-Millesimo acquired Košetice. His over-indebted goods were auctioned off three years later and the new owners of Košetice were the Dominicans in Prague's New Town . The order brought back the run-down rule and sold it in 1701 to Ferdinand Georg Vražda von Kunwald for a profit. In 1713, his son Franz Vražda von Kunwald inherited Košetice and sold it to Anna Freiin von Ranzau in 1716. Her son Leopold Siegming von Ranzau sold Košetice in 1725 for 45,000 guilders to 45,000 guilders to the captain of the Czaslauer district, Josef Jaroslav Count Věžník z Věžníků (1695–1740). Until his untimely death on January 29, 1740, he had the castle and the farmyard converted into a baroque residence. Since his eldest son, Count František Věžník, joined the Premonstratensian Order as Frater Marian in 1736, the inheritance fell to his widow Sylvie von Klebelsberg, who managed it until 1756 for her youngest son, Anton Johann Nepomuk Brixi Věžník z Věžníků, until he came of age. On the basis of the donation of Count Anton Věžník, an independent parish was again established in Košetice in 1762. Count Anton Věžník, suffering from a chronic illness, sold Košetice to his personal physician Josef Franz Xaver Erithräi from Kutná Hora in 1769 and died in Kutná Hora in the same year. In 1778 Johann Freiherr von Goldenhoffen acquired Košetice. He died in 1783 on a trip to Styria . The next owner was Antonín Josef Šiška from Jamolice until 1786. He committed suicide after being charged with theft in Prague. At the auction of his estate, Anton Moritz Ritter von Böhm acquired the rule. In 1787 the Lords von Böhm had parts of the manorial court parceled out and the villages of Neudorf (Suchomasty, today Nová Ves) and Schonbold (Šimbold, today Krasolesí) laid out. In the forest near Beránkův Mlýn, the von Böhm men founded a glassworks in 1789, which was in operation until 1796. Between 1792 and 1794 a new rectory was built on the site of a farm next to the church. On August 6, 1795, lightning struck the church tower, and Ritter von Böhm had the damage repaired in the same year. There is evidence of a parish school in Košetice since 1797. The von Böhm family of Polish knights held the property until 1860.

After the replacement of patrimonial Košetice / Koschetitz formed from 1850 with the district Nová Ves a political municipality in the district administration Ledetsch . A little later Dolní Kralovice became the seat of the district court . In 1860 the von Böhm family sold the goods to Baron Joseph von Stangler. During the German war, on August 15, 1855, Prussian hussars moved to Košetice and brought in cholera , from which two soldiers and 25 residents died. On May 21, 1867 the stately farmyard burned down. In 1876, the lordly district forester Josef Kruml was murdered in the Kosoví les forest by the poacher Jan Zík. In 1887 a major fire destroyed 14 buildings. The volunteer fire brigade was founded in 1895. In 1896 the Stangler family sold Košetice to the Prague millionaire and entrepreneur Viktor Rost and moved to Věž Castle . He owned the goods until 1910 and, like his German staff, was not very popular with the residents of the village. The next owner of the castle was the politician Karel Prášek . In the years 1912 to 1913 the old cemetery at the church was excavated and a new one laid out on the eastern edge of the village. In 1913 a new school was also built. Krasolesí and Nový Dvůr were attached to Košetice in 1923. Between 1928 and 1932 the road from Martinice u Onšova to Košetice was built. In 1929 and 1930 the distillery was reconstructed. In the last days of World War II, the Red Army occupied Košetice in April and May 1945 and caused damage of 690,000 kroner. 1950 Pacov was attached to the Okres Pacov and after its dissolution the community came to Okres Pelhřimov in 1961 . Between 1976 and 1989 the towns of Arneštovice , Babice, Buřenice , Chýstovice , Chyšná , Jedlina, Kyjov, Martinice u Onšova, Nová Ves, Radějov, Skoranovice, Onšov , Těškovice and Chlovy were incorporated, which dissolved again by 1992. The Prášek family received the castles back in 1995 in restitution. The municipal administration, library and clothing collection moved into the rectory in 1996 when the castle was cleared. The production facility of the DUP Pelhřimov cooperative, also located in the castle, was closed. Between 2000 and 2001 a new building was built for the municipal administration. In 2004 the distillery ceased operations. At the beginning of 2009 the community had 721 inhabitants. 712 of them lived in the Košetice district and nine in the Nová Ves district.
