history

Mažice was first mentioned in writing on April 1, 1354, when Ulrich IV von Neuhaus sold part of the village together with Zálší, Sviny , Svinky, Vlastiboř and Borkovice to the Rosenbergs . The greater part belonged to the archiepiscopal estates in Moldauthein . Jost I. von Rosenberg sold his share in Mažice on January 23, 1364 to Martin Hlaváč von Mutice. The owner of the former archbishop's share was in 1541 Volf Hozlauer von Hozlau auf Bzí , this share was attached to the Zálší estate in the 16th century. The other part belonged to Veselí . In 1840 Maschitz consisted of 59 houses with 390 inhabitants. Of these, 47 were subject to the Zalsy Fideikommissgut , seven to the Wittingau estate and five to the Wittingau estate, which was part of the estate. The parish was Zalsy. In the village there was an inn and a farm of the Zalsy estate. Another Meierhof with an extensive peat cut belonged to the Wittingau domain. Until the middle of the 19th century, the village was always divided between Zalsy and Wittingau.

After the abolition of patrimonial Mažice formed from 1850 a municipality in the district administration Třeboň / Wittingau and the judicial district Veselí nad Lužnicí. After the Okres Třeboň was abolished, Mažice was assigned to the newly formed Okres Soběslav in 1948. From 1953 the peat extraction was expanded and 1.7 million tons of peat was extracted until it was discontinued in 1980. The Okres Soběslav was dissolved again in 1961 and the community assigned to the Okres Tábor. At the same time it was incorporated into Zálší. With this together Mažice was incorporated into Borkovice on July 1, 1980. After a referendum, Mažice broke up on November 24, 1990 and formed its own municipality. The town center has been protected as a rural monument protection area since 1995.
