history

The first written mention of the village Mesholes belonging to the Sedlec monastery comes from 1384. In 1387 the village was referred to as Mishol . In the 15th century Franz von Rosental owned the fortress and part of the village, and in 1445 he bequeathed his share to the Sázava monastery . Later various nobles took turns as owners. The other part of the village with a farm belonged to the Suchdol and Tuchotice estates during the 16th century, and later it was attached to the Malešov manor.

In 1738 Johann Robenhaupt von Sucha ceded his property in Mezholezy to his creditors Joachim von Breda and the Kuttenberg Jesuit College because of a debt of almost 123,000 guilders . The Jesuits managed the Meierhof ( seminar courtyard ) until the order was abolished in 1773. In 1809 the Dalberg family inherited the Mezholezy estate. In 1843 the village was called Meßholes .

After the abolition of patrimonial Mezholezy formed a community in the judicial district of Kuttenberg, Caslaver Kreis. From 1868 the village belonged to the Kuttenberg district . At the beginning of the 20th century, Mezholezy consisted of 34 houses and had 150 inhabitants. In 1949 Mezholezy was incorporated into Miskovice. The limestone quarry below the village was shut down in the 1950s.

On March 3, 1991, the place had 118 inhabitants, at the 2001 census, 121 people lived in the 28 houses of Mezholezy. A lookout tower was built on Vysoká in 2001. Found in a sand pit near Mezholezy 2,003 bones of a iguanodons are the first evidence of dinosaurs in the Czech Republic.
