history
Archaeological finds show an early settlement of the municipality. These include a burial ground of the cord ceramic culture from the end of the 3rd millennium BC. BC, a Celtic settlement from the 3rd century BC. And a Germanic settlement from the end of the 2nd century.
The first written mention of the village took place in 1340 in a deed by Charles of Uherčice on the sale of three hubs of the Vilémov monastery, in which Strzeiesewoy dictus Holub de Comurzan ( Střezivoj Holub z Komořan ) appeared as a witness. He came from an old Tachau family and came to Moravia in the wake of Heinrich von Leipa . In 1347 Střezivoj Holub bequeathed his property in Comurzan, including the fortress, the church and the church patronage, to the Cistercian monastery Aula Sanctae Mariae from Old Brno . In the following year, the German form of the name Gundrams was handed down for the first time . At that time the place was a fortified market settlement. In the 15th and 16th centuries Gundrum achieved an economic boom and belonged to the German-speaking Wischau language island . One of the privileges of the place was the use of a coat of arms that showed a scythe and ploughshare and had the initials MG ( market town of Gundrum ) on the sides . There was a massive toll gate at the entrance to the village. There is evidence of a fish pond near the town since 1459, which belonged to Jeroným von Pivín. Around 1616, a large fire destroyed the entire town, including the church and rectory, in ruins. The following Thirty Years War and especially the invasion of the Swedes led to a further decline of the place. After the end of the war, 17 of the 51 houses were ruined. The parish went out during this time and between 1652 and 1658 Gundrum was parish to Alt Raußnitz. The town was repopulated by Germans, while large parts of the language island became Czech-speaking during this time. In 1658 the Diocese of Olomouc renewed the parish in Gundrum after the citizens' requests and occupied it with Cistercians from the Hohenfurth monastery . On January 12, 1782, with the abolition of the Old Brno Royal Monastery, Gundrum's 435-year subservience to the Cistercian monastery ended. The monastery property fell to the religious fund, which sold them to Franz Ritter Haintl in 1825. In 1791 there were 469 people living in the market town. At the transition from the 18th to the 19th century, imperial troops from the Colloredo, Lobkowicz and Mitrovský regiments were quartered in Gundrum. Part of it remained permanently stationed. During the Napoleonic Wars, columns of the Russian and French armies passed through the village en route to Vienna . After the outbreak of the Battle of Austerlitz , the residents of Gundrum fled to the mountains of the Drahaner Bergland. In the years 1832 and 1840, two major fires broke out in the town. Gundrum had 513 inhabitants in 1834. Franz Ritter Haintl jun., Who had inherited the rule of Altbrünn in 1839 from his father of the same name, sold it in 1843 to Eduard Heinrich Fürst zu Schönburg-Hartenstein .
After the abolition of patrimonial Gundrum formed from 1850 a community in the district administration Wischau . In 1854 the market had 619 inhabitants. On July 9, 1857, a major fire devastated the place, 84 houses and 30 barns were destroyed. In 1866, Prussian troops brought in cholera , as a result of which 35 residents and one Prussian soldier died. Further owners of the goods were from 1872 Alexander Prince zu Schönburg-Hartenstein and from 1896 his son Alois Schönburg-Hartenstein . In 1930 Gundrum had 657 inhabitants, the majority of whom belonged to the German ethnic group. In the same year the existence of the German primary school was called into question and the subject of a parliamentary debate. After the German occupation , the Czech families were evacuated from Gundrum in 1939. The German population was expelled after the Second World War and the place was repopulated with Czechs from the Drahaner Bergland, whose houses had become uninhabitable due to the Wischau military training area. A Czech school was established in Komořany as early as 1945 and initially only seven children from Čechyně were enrolled. In 1947 there were 620 people in Komořany. In 1964 Komořany was merged with Podbřežice to form a municipality Komořany-Podbřežice . This dissolved again in 1990. In addition to metal and wood processing companies, European Data Project sro is the largest employer in Komořany. In 2002, the subsidiary of the Austrian Novomatic Group of Companies set up another facility in Rousínov . The Komořany municipality has had a coat of arms and a banner since 2001. The rectory was renovated in 2008. In the same year, a scaled-down replica of the Statue of Liberty bearing the Novomatic logo was installed in the center of a newly established roundabout . The figure was made in Austria.
