history

Finds of Neolithic tools on the Gabrielina farm above the village prove an early settlement. The first written mention of the village took place in 1339 as the property of Jan and his son Mikuláš von Lípa. He was followed by Jan Bílý Kordul from Sloupno from 1355 to 1364 and from 1408 Tomáš and Hošek from Lípa. A few years later the village belonged to Matěj Salava, the progenitor of the Salava of Lípa, a family related to the Trčka of Lípa and Lipský of Lípa. In the 15th century, most of the goods belonged to the Lipský of Lípa. After Věřek Lipský's death, around 1540 his post-mortem children sold the fortress, a wooden estate and the village to Mikuláš Bořka from Dohalice, who attached it to his possessions in Dohalice. In 1599 Zdeněk Bořka Dohalický of Dohalice died. His heirs sold Lípa as an independent estate to Jan Přech Třemeský of Železná. Subsequently, Lípa came to the rule Smiřice , which acquired the other part of the place until 1619. After 1619 the fortress, in the place of which the Gabrielina court was built, ceased to exist.

After the abolition of patrimonial Lípa formed a community in the Königgrätz district from 1850 . On July 3, 1866, the warring Prussian and Austrian troops met on the Chlum during the German War . The bloody battle went down in history as the Battle of Königgrätz . In 1949 the community was assigned to the Okres Hradec Králové-okolí and came after its dissolution on January 1, 1961 to the Okres Hradec Králové. In 1971 Lípa was incorporated into Číštěves and since January 1, 1989 the village has belonged to the municipality of Všestary . In 1991 the place had 124 inhabitants. In 2001 the village consisted of 35 houses in which 129 people lived.
