history
In the 13th century the forests between Moldau and Skalice were cleared and settled. The village was one of the many villages founded according to the Lhot system , whose settlers were exempt from duties and services to the authorities for a certain period of time. These villages were all called Lehota , which later became Lhota . The first written mention of Lehota comes from the year 1361. Lhota was subordinate to the royal bailiff in Lety and was called Králova Lhota to distinguish it from the other nearby town of Lhota .
In 1421 King Sigismund Králova Lhota separated from the royal goods and transferred the place to Matěj Brus von Kovářov. The subsequent owners of the village were from 1437 Bušek Sekerka from Sedčice, from 1461 Jindřich Sádlo from Kladrubec and from 1471 Smil Hodějovský from Hodějov.
After the abolition of patrimonial Králova Lhota belonged to the municipality of Orlík from 1850 to 1880 and then became independent. In 1910 the village had 411 inhabitants, in 1921 there were 385. During the time of the Protectorate of Bohemia and Moravia , the Lety concentration camp for Sinti and Roma existed at Krahulík north of the village . 1961 Lažiště was incorporated.
