The first written mention of the village was in 1386 in connection with a Henricus de Cruh . At the beginning of the 15th century the village was divided into two parts. In 1406 Jarek von Mžan owned one part, while the other belonged to Oldřich von Kruh († 1415). Its seat was a small fortress with a courtyard that was located in the middle of the village anger . Later Kruh became part of the Štěpanice estate. When they were divided between Hynek von Waldstein on Jilemnice and Heník von Waldstein on Štěpanice, most of the village came under the rule of Jilemnice in 1492, while eight properties were subject to the rule of Kumburk .
Together with Jilemnice, Arnošt Jilemnický from Újezdec and Kůnice acquired most of the village in 1547. His son Záviš followed him in 1577.
