The first written mention of the village was in 1333 as the property of the Roudnice nad Labem monastery . In 1338 the monastery in Libořice had a fortress built. In 1386 the Augustinians from Roudnica sold the property to Jan von Brloh. In 1404 Václav Valkoun von Solopysk bought the goods. Zikmund Řepanský of Řepany followed him in 1437. After numerous changes of ownership, Libořice passed to the lords of Kolowrat at the beginning of the 18th century . In 1718 Franz Josef Graf Schlick Libořice acquired from Maximilian Kolowrat-Libštejnský. He had the old fortress converted into an early baroque palace. In 1739 the Counts von Klebelsberg bought the property. After the castle had been repaired, Wenzel von Klebelsberg had a castle park laid out at the castle along the Goldbach. The execution was carried out from 1780 by the lordly horticulturist of Count Czernin Rudolf Födisch, who had designed the English landscape park in Schönhof .

In the same year, the Counts Klebelsberg sold the castle and estate to the Michelober brewery owner Anton Dreher . In 1930 the community had 729 inhabitants.

After the Munich Agreement , the place was added to the German Reich in 1938 and belonged to the Podersam district until 1945 .
