history

Mezilesice was first mentioned in writing in 1229 in a document from King Ottokar I Přemysl as the property of the Opatowitz monastery . The earliest news of a fortress as the seat of the Zeman Buzek from Mezilesice comes from 1415. The Hroch family from Mezilesice expanded their property in the first half of the 15th century to include the Bylany and Týnec estates . In the 1450s the estate belonged to Mikuláš von Bochov and Mezilesice. Later the owners changed often, including Mikuláš Štítný from Štítné, Absolon from Ledská, Peter Hubryk from Hennersdorf, Diviš Bohušínský from Božejov, Jan Bohušínský from Božejov and from 1626 his widow Anna. During the Thirty Years' War the village was looted and burned down by swept through Swedish troops. In 1660 the owner of the Třibřichy and Dřenice estates , Eva Lidmila Anna Kustošová, née von Glauchau, bought the Mezilesice estate and had the ruined fortress rebuilt. Eva Lidmila married Jan Viktor von Waldstein for the second time after the death of Jindřich Kustoš . Her son Ferdinand Leopold Baron Kustoš von Zubří and Lipka, who had inherited the goods Třibřichy, Dřenice, Lipka and Mezilesice in 1682, united them into one rule Mezilesice. In 1694 he bequeathed the rule to his son Ferdinand Adam. In 1715 he first separated the Lipka and Třibřichy estates from the rule and sold them to his sister Maria Elisabeth Countess Millesimo. In 1716 he sold the Mezilesice estate to Octavian Ladislav von Waldstein. Her daughter sold her to Theresia Raschin von Riesenburg , née Straka von Nedabylic , in 1722 . In 1725 their daughter Maria Theresa inherited Freiin von Vernier. Her husband Wenzel Vernier de Rougemont had a castle built in Mezilesice. In 1755 Johann Joseph Vernier de Rougemont inherited the Mezilesice estate. At the end of the 18th century, the place name changed from Mezilesice or Mezylesitz to Medleschitz . In 1802 the barons Vernier sold the Medleschitz estate. Of the four ponds in the village of Čeperka, Spojil, Voplatil and Chmelnický rybník, only the latter - today Pivovarský rybník - remained; the other three were drained and converted to farmland in 1802. In 1807 a potash boiler was built near Medleschitz, which was given up again in 1809. In 1810 the Bishop of Königgrätz , Maria Thaddäus von Trautmannsdorff, acquired the estate and bequeathed it to his brother Joachim von Trauttmansdorff-Weinsberg. In 1835 his widow Henriette, née Countess Allemagna, inherited the property.

In 1835 the Allodialgut Medleschitz, located in the Chrudim district , covered an area of ​​1005 yokes 1346 square fathoms. The estate included the villages of Medleschitz and Dřenitz as well as a chalet from Kozoged ( Kozojedy ), the Revierjägerhaus in Janowitz ( Janovice ) and the construction site of the former farm in Holiček ( Holičky ) with a total of 770 Bohemian- speaking residents. The main source of income was agriculture, and 22 traders were registered. The forest Holičko near Janowitz, which was the only forest area, was separated from the rest of the area. The rulers managed one of the two farms in Medleschitz, the other was emphyteutized; Another farm in the Holičko forest had already been demolished. The village Medleschitz or Medlessice consisted of 47 houses in which 313 people, including a Jewish family, lived. In the village there was an official castle with the office of the economic office and an ornamental, fruit and kitchen garden, a farm, a sheep farm, a leased brewery, a leased brandy house, an inn and a hunter's house. The rectory was Mikolowitz . Medleschitz remained a country estate until the middle of the 19th century .

After the abolition of patrimonial Medlešice formed from 1849 with the district Bláto a municipality in the judicial district of Chrudim . In 1864 Hugo Wiedersperger von Wiedersperg inherited the manor from his mother Theresia, née von Trauttmansdorff-Weinsberg. From 1868 the Medlešice municipality belonged to the Chrudim District . Between 1868 and 1871 the Deutschbrod – Pardubitz railway line was laid out. In 1869 Medlešice had 462 inhabitants. A brick factory was established in the 1880s. At the end of the 19th century, Blato broke away from Medlešice and formed its own community. In 1890 the Wiedersperger family sold the brewery to Chrudimer Actien-Mälzerei. The Medlešice brewery experienced its greatest boom after 1919 under the owner Ladislav Zeman. In 1897 the volunteer fire brigade for Medlešice and Blato was founded. In 1900 there were 503 people living in the community, ten years later there were 508. In 1922 the electrification of the village began. In 1930 Medlešice had 534 inhabitants. On July 1, 1985 it was incorporated into Chrudim. From 2004 the new state road I / 37 was built east of the village.
