history
The lumberjack settlement was probably created in the 13th century. The first written mention of the village of Lauwicz , which was part of the giant castle, was made in 1398 when the brothers Borso d. Ä. and Borso d. J. von Riesenburg sold the rule Riesenburg to the Margrave Wilhelm I of Meissen . Through the Treaty of Eger , Launitz came back to the Kingdom of Bohemia as part of the Riesenburg rule in 1459 and was later attached to the Jahnsdorf estate . In 1726, the city of Brüx bought the Jahnsdorf estate and added it to their rule in Kopitz .
In 1844 Launitz consisted of 14 houses with 89 German-speaking residents. Parish was Ober-Leitensdorf . Until the middle of the 19th century, Launitz remained subject to the Kopitz rule.
After the abolition of the patrimonial rule, Launitz and the one-layer Rothe Wiese formed a district of the community of Johnsdorf in the Saatzer Kreis and judicial district of Brüx from 1850 . The village had 79 inhabitants. From 1868 the village belonged to the Brüx district . The industrial boom and the associated population explosion in the neighboring North Bohemian Basin at the end of the 19th century did not affect Launitz; Because of the remoteness, the number of inhabitants even declined. The residents made a living from logging and did some farming. The watermill located on the southern outskirts in Rothe Wiese ( Červená Louka ) was abandoned at the end of the 19th century because the water power of the Launitz brook was no longer sufficient for grinding after the construction of a drinking water pipe for the town of Brüx in 1892. Since 1905 the village belonged to the newly formed judicial district Oberleutensdorf. Between 1910 and 1914 the dam of the town of Brüx was built in the Hammerbach valley . The road from Hammer to Launitz was laid out in the 1920s as a job creation measure. As a result of the Munich Agreement , the village was added to the German Reich in 1938 and belonged to the district of Brüx until 1945 . After the end of World War II, Lounice came back to Czechoslovakia and the German-Bohemian population was expelled . In 1963 Lounice was incorporated into Hamr together with Janov, and since 1986 the village has belonged to the town of Litvínov.
