history

The village was created during the colonization of the Moravian border areas with Bohemia under the Přemyslids by German settlers. It was probably laid out in the first third of the 13th century by Wolfram pincerna Schenk von Schenkenberg or by his sons Wilhelm and Marquart. At that time, the Schenkenbergers participated intensively in the settlement of Moravia. In 1233 the Bohemian Premonstratensian Monastery of Seelau complained to Wenceslaus I about the appropriation of the monastery by the sons of Wolfram. As a result, Wenceslaus established a precise demarcation between the sea-dwellers and the episcopal Řečice estates on the Bohemian side of the hedgehogs . At that time, a protective fortress was built opposite the ford on the Bohemian side belonging to the Archdiocese of Prague .

The village Wolframs was first mentioned in a document in 1288 when the Iglauer Senate confirmed the ownership of the abbot Jacob from Seelau over the forests between Popowitz (Popice) and Wolframs acquired from the Moravian mint master Dietmar. In 1360 the brothers Ulrich Hammer, Hron and Nikolaus, from the Bohemian noble family of the Hammer de Paczaw , were handed down as owners of the place and the fortress with the nickname de Costelecz . In 1371 Habel de Paczaw sold the village and the Wolframs fortress to Jaroslav von Sternberg . The 1408 again in the Landtafel registered fortress was probably during the Hussite wars destroyed by Jihlava at the time of the attacks of the Hussites and sieges. When Andraczko de Costelecz sold Wolframser goods to Drslav Kobik from Opatov in 1464, the festival was no longer mentioned. Johann Kobik sold the goods to the city of Iglau in 1513. The residents of the place remained subservient to Iglau until the middle of the 19th century. The village belonging to the Iglauer Sprachinsel was mostly inhabited by Germans. The Vestenhof was divided up by the city of Iglau in 1777 and bequeathed to the Teltscher, Prokesch and Mathes Ohnsorg families, and at the same time it was assigned to the cadastre of courtyards .

After the abolition of patrimonial Wolframs / Kostelec formed a community in the Iglau district from 1850. Vestenhof were now connected to Zeil . In 1860 406 people lived in Wolframs. In 1880 the community had 411 inhabitants, of which 372 were Germans and 39 Czechs. On November 3, 1887, the place received a railway connection with the inclusion of the line from Veselí nad Lužnicí to Iglau by the Bohemian-Moravian Transversal Railway. The local railway from Wolframs to Telč was built between 1897 and 1898 . On March 18, 1907, Johann Frühauf's steam mill burned down. Frühauf then sold the property to the Gablonz glass exporter Emil Zimmer and the glass cutting company owner Josef Schmidt from Příchovice, who set up a glass cutting shop in the mill. The district road to Sollowitz was built in 1910 and 1911. In 1917 , Jan Satrapa and Richard Spitzer , the owners of the First Moravian Slaughtered Goods and Preserve Factory in Studein , acquired the former glass cutting shop, including the water rights and the pond, together with the director of the Batelov estate administration , Karel Czanský, the Brno engineer Josef Spitzer and the butcher Jan Hammlisch from Batelov. They founded the Factory for Smoked Goods and Preserves GmbH in Wolframs on the 12 hectare site . After the Second World War, the German residents were expelled in 1945 . In 1949 the municipality Kostelec was assigned to the Okres Jihlava-okolí and since 1961 it has belonged again to the Okres Jihlava .

The largest company in town is the meat factory Kostelecké uzeniny as
