Kopisty (German Kopitz ) was a district of the city of Most in the Czech Republic . It was north of Most on the Bílý potok ( Weißbach , formerly the Gold River ) in the North Bohemian Basin . With the expansion of coal mining, Kopisty was largely eliminated in 1979 and relocated to Most in the Starý Most district. The Kopisty cadastral district today belongs to the Starý Most district.

history

Village square (around 1900)

The first written mention in the documents of the foundation of the chapter of Leitmeritz comes from the year 1057. In the 13th century it probably belonged partly to the Ossegg monastery . In 1227 the childless Kojata IV. Von Hrabischitz donated part of the copyist to the Lords of the Cross with the double red cross of the Zderaz monastery . Another part presumably remained in the hands of the nobility, as evidenced by the use of the prefix by Chotebor von Kopist 1238 and Detrich von Kopist 1264. Kopist remained divided into two parts in the centuries that followed.

The property of the monastery was sold in the 14th century to the Kerung von Lom (Kerunkové z Lomu), who presumably sold it to the Chemnitz monastery (1344-1366). After 1366 the owners changed in quick succession, mostly junkers or members of the small nobility. In 1405 Wenzel von Mrzlitz had the local fortress built. This was destroyed by the Hussites and rebuilt in 1510. Other owners of the place were the lords of Hochhaus (1439-1510), Smolik von Slawitz (1510-1533), and Sekerka von Sedschitz. Since 1543, part of the town belonged to Brüx, the other to Johann von Weitmühl, master of the Brüx regional observation point . After the city had also acquired the Brüxer Burg and the associated goods in 1595, they brought their goods together in a domain based in Kopitz. In 1620 14 farmers, 32 cottagers, 1 gardener and 15 landless lived in the village. In 1651 there were 106 people. In 1726 the city of Brüx bought the Jahnsdorf estate and the Kummerpursch estate in 1736, and combined both with Kopitz.

In 1844 the Kopitz estate comprised a total of 13,175 yoke 32 square fathoms , of which 13,154 yoke 1492 square fathoms were accounted for by the Kopitz and Jahnsdorf goods and 20 yoke 140 square fathoms in the Kummerburscher Hof. 3,581 German-speaking people lived in the area, including two Protestant and one Jewish families. The main sources of income were agriculture and animal husbandry. The authorities managed the ten Meierhöfe Kopitz, Stoppelhof, Marowes, Sabnitz, Rösselhof, Tschöppern, Kummerbursch, Triebschitz, Haberhof and Jahnsdorf as well as four sheep farms in Tschöppern, Tschausch, Kummerbursch and Sabnitz. The lordship included the villages of Kopitz, Plan ( Pláň ), Tschausch , Triebschitz ( Třebušice ), Kummerbursch or Kummerpursch , Rosenthal , Hawran , Sabnitz ( Saběnice ), Marowes ( Moravěves ), Tschöppern , Würschen ( Vršany ), Skyritz ( Skyřice ), Welbuditz ( Velebudice ), Jahnsdorf , Kreuzweg , Launitz , Böhmisch-Einsiedel as well as 16 houses from Hammer and the 15 houses from Brüxer Göhrn . Together with the Kopitz rule, the Seydowitz ( Židovice ) estate was also subject to the jurisdiction and political administration of the Brüx magistrate, but it was kept separately in the land register and the tax cadastre. The village of Kopitz consisted of 74 houses with 387 inhabitants. In the village there was the branch church of Corpus Christi, a branch school, an aristocratic Meierhof, a Dominikales Bräuhaus, a Dominikales brandy house, a tavern and two emphytheutische mills, one of which is the Brüxer Spital zum St. Spirit was subject to interest. The parish was Tschausch. Until the middle of the 19th century Kopitz was the official village of the Kopitz rule.

After the abolition of patrimonial Kopitz formed from 1850 with the districts Rosenthal, Paredl and Plan a municipality in the Saatzer Kreis and judicial district of Brüx. From 1868 the village belonged to the Brüx district . In 1876, traffic on the Brüx – Ossegg railway was started. The inclusion of the deep lignite mines Julius II (1878), Julius III (1882), Julius IV (1891) and Habsburg, later Minerva (1890), led to an explosive population increase. On August 5, 1901, the Brüxer Strassenbahn- und Elektrizitäts-Gesellschaft AG started operating on the electric regional tram from Brüx to Johnsdorf . In 1911 Kopitz was promoted to town.

In 1930, 8357 people lived in Kopitz and its districts, 5932 of them were Czechs. The city itself had 5455 inhabitants. As a result of the Munich Agreement , Kopitz was added to the German Reich in 1938 and belonged to the district of Brüx until 1945 . In 1939 Kopitz had 6,752 inhabitants including the districts. On April 1, 1941, Kopitz was incorporated into the district town of Brüx.

After the end of World War II, Kopisty returned to Czechoslovakia and the German-Bohemian population was expelled and their property was confiscated by the Beneš Decree 108 .

In 1949, the district of Růžodol including the settlement Důl Julius III was reassigned to Litvínov . Kopisty was devastated in 1979 because of the advancing lignite mining operations.

The Gothic Church of the Corpus Christi (1352) with the sculpture of the Madonna (1380) was lost. The statue of St. Florian (1739) by Johann Adam Dietz was moved to Wteln .
