history

The first written mention of the village Lechoticzie , which belonged to the Količín rule, was made in 1342 together with Lhota in the course of the purchase of the rule by the Marquis Karl . The village of Lhota soon died out; it was in the Lhotska corridor . In 1368 Peter Holický von Sternberg bought Količín with all accessories, including Lechoticz , and connected the goods with his lordship Holešov. In 1397, his heirs, Peter von Krawarn and Marquart von Sternberg, sold the Količín estate with the villages of Blazice , Hostišová , Količín, Lechotycze , Machová , Markov, Meziříčí, Míškovice , Mysločovice , Racková , Sazovice , Syrotsko and Ždenkoov V. von Stern aufdenkoovice . After the Hussite Wars, Zdenko's descendants gradually sold parts of the originally great rule due to financial hardship. This also included the village of Lechoticze , which the cousins ​​from the Holleschau branch of the family acquired in 1481.

The subsequent owners were the lords von Zierotin , the Boogers von Lobkowicz and from 1650 Johann von Rottal . The majority of the inhabitants of Lechotitz belonged to the denomination of the Bohemian Brothers since the 16th century. The oldest local seal shows an image of St. Bartholomäus and is inscribed PECZET OBECZNI DIEDINI LECHOTITZ . After the von Rottal family died out, the inheritance fell to Franz Anton von Rottal's son-in-law Franz Maximilian Nádasdy in 1762 , who sold the rule to Count Erdődy . Until the middle of the 19th century, the place was always subject to Holešov.

After the abolition of patrimonial Lechotice / Lechotitz formed from 1850 a municipality in the district authority Holešov. In 1858 the Erdődy counts sold their goods in Holešov with all their accessories to the von Würben counts . In 1868 a school was set up in the upper part of the village green. In 1912 a new school building was built below it, on the site of the smithy and the house of František Karlík. In 1960 the community was assigned to the Okres Kroměříž . In 1975 the local primary school was closed and the children were retrained to Mysločovice. A kindergarten was set up in the school building. The village has always been parish to Mysločovice.
