history
Litenčice was already settled during the Great Moravian Empire , on the Obecnice hill a burial ground with 153 graves was found from this period.
The first written mention of Lutincicih was in 1141 in a property register of the Olomouc bishop Heinrich Zdik under the goods of the Archdeaconate Spytihněv . Since the 14th century the village was in secular possession. In 1351 it was referred to as Lyvtenczicz and in 1371 as Litenczicz . The owners changed several times and from the middle of the 14th century a fortress served as the seat of the rule. This was first mentioned in a document in 1437, when Pavlík von Pržno left it together with the farm and part of the village to Arkle von Kunkovice and Zástřizl . The Kunkovický von Zástřizl held Litenczicz until 1509, then followed by the Kropáč von Nevědomí until 1554. From 1568 the rule belonged to the Hungarian Catholic Gabriel Meylath von Fagarosch. In 1572 the place was called Lytencžycze . In 1618, Ulrich von Kaunitz's widow Ludmilla von Ruppau bought the estate for 64,000 guilders. At the subsequent owners belonged Graner Bishop Péter Pázmány , who converted the fortress into a castle. The renovation was completed after Pázmány's death in 1667. In 1697 Franz Hannibal Freiherr von Stomm acquired the rule on Chvalnov and united the Chvalnov estate with Littentschitz . He sold both goods in 1713 to Franz Wilhelm Freiherr von Thonsern. He was followed by his son Franz Josef (1701–1778), who became known as a mechanic. With him the line of Thonsern died out in the male line. In 1778 Franz Anton Podstatzky von Prusinowitz inherited the property on condition that he took over the name Thonsern. This gave rise to the Podstatzky-Thonsern family branch. Until the middle of the 19th century Litenčice always remained an independent rule.
After the abolition of patrimonial Litenčice / Littentschitz formed from 1850 a market town in the Kremsier district authority . After the Communists came to power, the Podstatzky-Thonsern were expropriated in 1948. 1986 Strabenice was incorporated. Since October 23, 2007 Litenčice has again the status of Městys .
