history

The first written mention of Kunnersdorf took place in 1377, at the same time the Church of All Saints was mentioned as a plebany. The Hohe Straße from Zittau to Friedland ran through the village on the border with Upper Lusatia , which was part of the Friedland dominion . In the 16th century the population had become Protestant and in the course of the Counter-Reformation that began after the Thirty Years War , large parts of the residents emigrated to the neighboring Protestant Upper Lusatia. In the berní rula of 1654 44 properties are shown for Kunnersdorf, 35 of which were abandoned and unmanaged. In the period from 1679 to 1680, the rebellious blacksmith Andreas Stelzig from Rückersdorf found wide support from the people of Kunnersdorf.

In 1833 the village consisted of 100 houses and had 531 inhabitants. After the abolition of patrimonial Kunnersdorf formed a political municipality in the judicial district Friedland or Friedland district . In 1876 the volunteer fire brigade was established under the direction of Heinrich Pfeifer . In 1900, 833 people lived in the village's 142 houses. In the same year, the narrow-gauge railway Friedland-Hermsdorf started traffic, its route ran at the southern exit of the town. In 1930 Kunnersdorf had 642 inhabitants. After the Munich Agreement , the community was added to the German Reich in 1938 and belonged to the Friedland district until 1945 . In 1939 Kunnersdorf had 599 inhabitants. After the Second World War, the expulsion of the German population began. After the dissolution of the Okres Frýdlant, the municipality was assigned to the Okres Liberec in 1961. The narrow-gauge railway Frýdlant – Heřmanice was closed in 1976. In 1980 it was incorporated into Frýdlant and the community has existed again since 1993.
