history

Archaeological finds show that the area during the Hallstatt and La Tène Celtic was settled. On the Celtic settlement area discovered in 1981 between Libenice and Kaňk, u. a. numerous ceramic finds from the 5th – 1st centuries Century made. One of the most important finds is a furnace with 10 kg of slag from the 2nd – 1st centuries. Century BC BC with traces of pyrrhotite, chalcopyrite, sphalerite and copper, which at the same time testify to an early civil engineering on the Kaňk. In 1959 an elongated area was discovered north of the village with the grave of an approx. 50-year-old woman buried with plenty of bronze jewelry and a two-meter-long stone stele made of yellowish and ocher-colored double-mica migmalite with tourmaline, which is probably a Celtic sanctuary; more recent findings in archeology point to a Viereckschanze . In 1993, around ten body graves from the Celtic era were found in the vicinity of this complex.

The first written mention of the village and farm Ljubenice was made in 1142 as the property of the Cistercian Sedletz monastery . In the middle of the 13th century, the mountain village of Grunta was created in the corridors of Libenice . In 1396 the monastery sold the Libenice estate to King Wenceslaus IV for life . In 1422 King Sigismund pledged the estate to the Erkinger von Seinsheim . Subsequent pledge owners of the Libenice estate with the villages of Bylany, Dolany and Všestáry were Hanuš von Rychnov from 1437 and Hynek and Pavel von Zaloňov from 1440 to 1454. King Ladislaus Jagiello pledged Libenice in 1498 to Bohuš Kostka von Postupitz , 1499 to Jan Janovský von Soutice, then to Jan von Práchňany and 1505 to Václav and Bohuslav Lorecký von Lkouš. In 1524 Katharina von Lichtenburg bought the estate, in 1530 Johann the Elder inherited it. Ä. Trčka from Lípa . He sold the fortress Libenice with the villages Libenice, Dolany and Grunta in 1538 to Václav Popel from Vesec on Suchdol . In 1540 the Kuttenberg patrician Jindřich Smíškový von Vrchoviště bought the estate and the Libenice farm, including the village of Grunta. He took his seat at the fortress Libenice and called himself Libenický von Vrchoviště. After his death - Jindřich Libenický was slain in Kuttenberg by Jan Firšice von Nabdín in 1540 - his son Beneš Libenický inherited the estate in 1550, after 1553 it fell to his second son, Jan Libenický. In 1560 Jan Libenický bought the claims of the Sedletz Monastery to the festivals and the village of Libenice, the village of Grunta with the church patronage and the village of Dolany for 100 thalers, in 1567 the estate was hereditary in the land table . In 1567 Jan Libenický bought the villages Němčice and Ohaře . Two years later he reached a settlement with the Kolín Council about creating a ditch between his pond at Starý Kolín and the Libenický rybník. In 1580 he bought the Hrobský mlýn in Kolín and a little later the Jeníkov estate . Jan Libenický von Vrchoviště was married to Anna Kamejská von Lstiboř and had two sons and two daughters; he died in 1589 and was buried in the church of Grunta. The brothers Vilém Všebor and Vratislav Libenický from Vrchoviště jointly took over the paternal lords of Libenice and Jeníkov; They paid their mother's inheritance through a dowry of 1000 Schock Bohemian Groschen , the mill in Kolín, annual income of 50 Schock Bohemian Groschen and a large farm in Dolany with furniture and cattle. In 1591 Vilém Všebor died without any descendants.

In the same year, King Rudolf II acquired Kolín and also showed interest in the Libenice manor. In 1593 he redeemed the pledge for 7,500 thalers that had existed since 1437 at Vratislav Libenický and slammed the estate with the villages of Libenice, Grunta and Dolany to the Kolín Chamberlain. At the same time he acquired the villages of Němčice and Ohaře from Vratislav Libenický, which also became part of the chamberlaincy. At that time the village of Libenice consisted of the fortress, five farmers, ten chlaupners and five Posedeken . In 1611 the new King Matthias II left the rule to Kolín Wenzel Graf Kinsky out of gratitude for the support in the overthrow of his brother Rudolf II. Not included was Libenice, which Matthias II transferred to his captain Martin Wilhein von Wustenow. After Count Wenceslas Kinsky fell out of favor with the king, Matthias II bought the Libenice manor back in 1616 and reunited it with the Kolín dominion. In the period after the Battle of the White Mountain , the Kuttenberg Jesuits took over the care of the branch church in Grunta. 1628 Libenice was together with the chamber rule Kolín to the chamber rule Podiebrad connected. In 1634 a fire caused by the workers and miners from Gang destroyed the fortress with the barn and three chalets.

In the Berní rula from 1654 five farmers, ten Chalupner including the manorial Kretschmer and five cottagers are listed. In 1713 the village consisted of five potažníci , ten chalupners and five cottagers. In the 1730s, non-Catholics would meet foreign priests in the area for secret services and heretical communions. The Libenický rybník pond was drained in 1749 and turned into meadows, as it only produced low yields and caused continuous damage to the property of the neighbors through flooding. In 1762 the Church of the Virgin Mary in Grunta became a branch church of the parish of Gang . In the course of raabization in 1778, the Libenice farm was closed and its corridors were parceled out.

On the basis of the Josephinian tolerance patent of 1781, the majority of the residents declared themselves to be of the Helvetic denomination . Since the number of parish members was too small to form their own parish, they were assigned to the Helvetian pastorate in Močovice , the Protestant services were held by preachers from surrounding parishes in private houses in Libenice and Dolany. In 1786 there were 54 houses in Libenice. In 1801 a one-class school for children from Libenice, Grunta, Čertovka, Dolany and Malá Vysoká was opened in Libenice; before that, the lesson was in progress. After the formation of a Protestant parish in 1826, a church was built, which was consecrated in September 1827. The Protestant rectory was completed in 1839. The two-class instruction began in 1842.

In 1843, the rustic and Dominikaldorf Libenitz in the Kauřim district consisted of 67 houses in which 486 people, including 31 Protestant and one Jewish family, lived. There was a school, an inn and a Protestant church with a rectory in the village. The one- tier Skalka inn was included in Libenitz . The Catholic parish was Gang, the official place was Kaisersdorf . In 1846 the Protestant cemetery was laid out with financial support from the Gustav Adolf Works . Until the middle of the 19th century Libenitz remained subject to Kolin.

After the abolition of patrimonial Libenice formed from 1849 with the district Grunta a municipality in the judicial district Kolin . During this time, the Catholic residents of the villages of Grunta, Čertovka, Dolany, Hořany and Libenice applied for the rebuilding of the church in Grunta and the establishment of a Catholic parish several times without success. In 1863, a Protestant private school for the Reformed children from Libenice, Čertovka, Dolany, Hořany and Vysoká started teaching, and from this time on, single-class classes were held in the public school. From 1868 the village belonged to the Kolin District . In 1869 Libenice had 487 inhabitants and consisted of 72 houses. The Protestant private school received the right to public instruction in 1876. Between 1884 and 1885 the public school building was repaired and enlarged; afterwards the pupils of both schools were taught together, partly also in the Protestant school. From the school year 1892/93, two classes were formed again, and in 1896 the school was renovated again. In 1900 the Catholic parish of Grunta was established. In 1900 there were 608 people in Libenice, in 1910 there were 582. In 1919 the district road to Kutná Hora was laid on a gravel road, it was not paved until 1966. The evangelical school was closed in 1921 due to insufficient student numbers. In 1930 Libenice had 547 inhabitants and consisted of 106 houses. During the German occupation of Bohemia and Moravia , the parachutists Rudolf Pernický and Leopold Musil landed at Libenice instead of Hlinsko on December 21, 1944 due to incorrect calculation of the jump location . In 1965 the village school also stopped teaching. In 1986 the asteroid (4823) Libenice was named after the municipality. At the beginning of 1992, Grunta broke away from Libenice and formed its own community. At the 2001 census, there were 260 people living in Libenice's 114 houses. The community has had a coat of arms and a banner since 2018; the golden unicorn comes from the coat of arms of the Libenický of Vrchoviště.
