history

Leština, like the surrounding towns, was probably founded in the 13th century. The village was first mentioned in documents in 1496 when the brothers Bohuslav and Vlach von Leskovec, together with their nephew Jetřich Jan, passed the rule of Humpolec with the town of Humpolec, the Orlík Castle , the villages Leština, Skála and Čejov and the desert village of Bransoudov to Jan Trčka sold by Lípa . Leština remained part of the Humpolec rule until 1559 and was then sold to the Lipnice rule together with the Věž manor . As Burian III. Trčka von Lípa sold Lipnice Castle to Franz von Thurn and Valsassina in 1561 , Leština was separated from this and added to the Světlá domain . After the murder of Adam Erdmann Trčka von Lípa, Emperor Ferdinand II confiscated his property and those of his father Jan Rudolf Trčka von Lípa on March 29, 1634 , the total estimated value of which was 4,000,000 guilders ; the confiscation patent was confirmed in May 1636 by the Reichshofrat in Vienna.

Ferdinand II had the rule of Světlá broken up into landed goods and sold them to his favorites. He sold the remaining part of the rule in 1636 to his chamberlain and war councilor Don Aldobrandini , who left it to the son of General Pappenheim , Grand Prior of the Maltese Wolf Adam zu Pappenheim . After his death there was a distribution of goods. The Pappenheim heirs received the Okrouhlice estate, which was expanded by numerous villages from the Světlá rulership, including Leština, and sold it to Philipp Adam zu Solms-Lich in 1637 . During the Swedish occupation of Lipnice Castle between 1639 and 1648, Leština was exposed to robbery, looting and pillage by the Swedes as well as by the imperial troops who wanted to recapture the castle. Most of the residents hid in the thick woods around the Worlow. From the berní rula of 1654 it emerges that only two long-established and one newly settled farmer as well as a Schindler farmed in Leština; one farm was still inhabited, but completely ruined by the war, another lay desolate. In the Okrouhlicer Urbar of 1668 five and a half hubs of arable land are listed for Leština , which are divided into one and a half hoppers, two whole hoppers, one three quarters and one quarter hoppers. Michael Achatius von Kirchner, who had acquired the goods Pollerskirchen , Herálec and Okrouhlice with Věž around 1708 , left the Okrouhlice estate to Johann Peter Straka von Nedabylic and Libčan in the same year . In his will, which was laid down in 1710, Straka ordered the establishment of the Straka Foundation for the establishment of a noble knight academy for young impoverished aristocrats. In addition to his estates Okrauhlitz, Liebtschan and Ober Weckelsdorf , cash assets of 38,542 guilders flowed into this . In 1715 the manor merged two farms into one manor house. In the Theresian cadastre from 1754 the estate, eight farmers, eight cottagers and a weaver are listed. The village was subordinate to the Rychtář in Skala . After the Count Straka von Nedabylic family died out, the three estates were administered as the Count Straka Foundation from 1771 . Since the Straka Academy had not come into being, in 1782, by order of Emperor Joseph I, an annual scholarship was awarded from the proceeds of the three estates for studying Bohemian young men of the aristocratic class in all kk hereditary lands. In 1792 the three foundations were placed under the administration of the Bohemian Estates State Committee. From 1793 the children attended the newly opened school in Skala.

In 1840 the village of Leschtina or Lesstina , located in the Caslau district on Humpoletzer Strasse, consisted of 27 houses in which 198 people lived. To the south was an official hunting lodge. The parish was Skala. Until the middle of the 19th century, Leschtina remained subordinate to the Okrauhlitz foundation .

After the abolition of patrimonial Leština formed from 1849 a district of the municipality of Skála in the judicial district of Humpoletz . After the Battle of Königgrätz , the Prussian army marched through the village in the direction of Vienna on July 9, 1866, after the preliminary peace of Nikolsburg the Prussians came back to Leština on August 14 on their march back. Both times the food supplies, horses and tobacco were confiscated and soldiers billeted; 22 residents died of the imported cholera . From 1868 the place belonged to the district Deutschbrod . In 1869 Leština had 200 inhabitants and consisted of 32 houses. In 1900 there were 220 people in Leština, in 1910 there were 222. The volunteer fire brigade was founded in 1903. On July 1, 1910, the village became part of the newly established Humpoletz district . In 1912 a local poor house was established. Leština broke away from Skála in 1919 and formed its own community. The dirt road from Skála to Leština was expanded into a district road in 1924. In 1930 Leština had 167 inhabitants and consisted of 34 houses. The chapel was built in 1934 and was financed from a collection of the residents. The village was electrified at the end of 1939. In the course of the territorial reform of 1960 and the repeal of the Okres Humpolec, the municipality was assigned to the Okres Havlíčkův Brod . On July 1, 1985 it was incorporated into Věž . In the 2001 census, 70 people lived in the 42 houses in the village.
