history

In the 11th and 12th centuries, a fortress was built on the salt road leading through the Königswald to Děčín . In 1169 the Order of St. John received the approval to colonize the forest areas on Mount Chwogen , the northern limit of the area was formed by the Luhbuhce brook . In the valley, the village was established at the end of the 13th century to the royal feasts Regis Silva / King Forest , the pro rata separated by the creek to the possessions of St. John and the reign of terror stone belonged.

In the 14th century, the Lords of Wartenberg acquired the entire village and added it to the Tetschen rule . There is evidence of a church in Königswald since 1357. After the fall of the village of Lauben (Pavlač) on the Hutberg, its inhabitants settled in Königswald in 1406. Between 1410 and 1421, the Hussite priest Peter worked in Königswald and the neighboring Eulau .

In 1487 Sigmund von Wartenberg on Tetschen sold half of the water from the Luhbuhce brook to the town of Aussig, and a water divider was built in the wood to feed the Aussig water to the Klíšský potok . Due to over-indebtedness, Sigmund von Wartenberg sold the rule of Tetschen with Sperlingstein , Kamnitz and Scharfenstein in 1511 for 60,000 shock Bohemian groschen to Nicholas III. Trčka from Lípa .

He sold the property four years later for 70,000 shock to the brothers Hans, Wolf and Friedrich von Salhausen auf Wehlen . When the property was awarded in 1522, King Forest was assigned to Hans von Salhausen, who sold the Tetschen estate to Rudolf von Bünau in 1534 . Königswald had evangelical pastors since the middle of the 16th century.

The Czech place name Libouchec , derived from the stream, was first found in 1453. In 1552 the village was hit by a great flood. In 1554 there was a hammer and a board mill in Königswald. There was a customs house in Holzgrund. The residents lived from the timber industry, silver mining and agriculture. After an inheritance was divided among the lords of Bünau, Königswald and Schönstein formed their own rulership from 1579, which became the owner of Günther von Bünau. He lived in Schönstein Castle, built by his father of the same name, and had another castle built in Königswald instead of the old fortress. In 1591 Günther von Bünau inherited part of Bodenbach on Schönstein-Königswald and had the Bünau Castle (Bünauburg) built there. He probably died in 1619 and the rule fell jointly to his sons Günther and Rudolf.

As a result of the Renewed State Order , which declared Catholicism to be the only denomination in Bohemia, the Protestant brothers von Bünau decided to go into exile in Electoral Saxony and sold the Schönstein estate with Königswald and Bünau in 1627 for 73,000 guilders to Christoph von Thun . In 1628 he bought the other estates of the Bünauer in northern Bohemia with the rule of Tetschen and in 1629 also Eulau . During the Thirty Years War in 1631 Croatian and Swedish troops devastated, and Schönstein and Tyssa were completely burned down. In the same year Günther and Rudolf von Bünau returned with Saxon troops and took possession of their previous estates by the beginning of 1632. On the orders of Ferdinand II , the Counts of Thun then stopped the annual installments due from the purchase and the purchase price was ultimately not paid until 1679. After the end of the war, the village was largely desolate and a peasant revolt broke out in the area. In 1671, the imperial counts Thun and Hohenstein combined the rule, which had been largely connected to Tetschen, to form the Tetschen family entourage. At that time Königswald consisted of 131 houses and had 855 inhabitants. Until the middle of the 19th century, Königswald was always subject to the Tetschen rulership.

After the abolition of patrimonial Königswald / Králový Les with the districts of Oberwald, Neu Königswald and Holzgrund formed a political municipality in the district authority of Tetschen from 1850. Since 1856 there was a post office in Königswald. In the same year, a financial watch was set up to prevent the increasing smuggling of borders to and from Saxony. Between 1869 and 1871 the Dux-Bodenbacher Eisenbahn built the Bodenbach-Komotau railway line south of the village . Libouchec has been the official Czech name of the village since 1924 and the majority of the population belonged to the German ethnic group. After the Munich Agreement , Königswald was added to the German Reich in 1938 and belonged to the Tetschen district until 1945 , and from 1943 to Tetschen-Bodenbach . In 1939 the community had 2,126 inhabitants. In 1945 Libouchec returned to Czechoslovakia and the German residents were expelled . Since 1961 Libouchec belongs to the Okres Ústí nad Labem , at the same time Čermná was added as a district. The largely extinct village of Horní Les lost its status as a district in 1974. In 1976 Žďárek and Knínice were incorporated. Between 1980 and 1997, Velké Chvojno was also incorporated into Libouchec.
