In 1503 Wilhelm II of Pernstein acquired the Kralice estate. He was followed by Johann von Pernstein and his son Vratislav . The strict Catholic unknowingly installed a Lutheran as pastor in Kralice in 1573, who held his office until the 1580s. In 1578 the church received a tower in the Renaissance style. In 1589 the church and rectory burned down. Seven years later, the whole town was burned to rubble and ashes. When the Pernsteiners' estates were sold off in 1597, the Moravian governor Joachim Haugwitz von Biskupitz acquired the Kralitz rule. During the Bohemian uprising of 1618 , Kralitz was in the hands of the rebels.

In 1637, Maximilian von Dietrichstein, as guardian of the underage Karl von Haugwitz, sold the Kralitz estate with the fortress and the associated villages Držovice , Vrahovice and a share from Vrbátky to Julius II von Salm and Neuburg . In 1683 Ferdinand Julius von Salm-Neuburg issued a “Manorial Order for the Honorable Council”, which included the keeping of local registers, the use of funds for public purposes and, because of the Turkish threat, the repair of the Olomouc and Wischau gates. Ernst Leopold von Salm-Neuburg sold the rule to Johann Joseph von Rottal in 1707 . In 1719 a fire destroyed parts of Kralitz.

In 1725 the Counts von Seilern acquired Kralitz. The dean Anton Josef Dreser had a new rectory built in 1733. During the First Silesian War , Prussian troops invaded Kralitz in 1742.
