history
The village was founded on September 10, 1577 by the owner of the Rothenhaus estate , August von Gersdorff , below Bernau on the Komotauer Landesstrasse and named after the founder. The village, laid out by 15 settlers, was assigned to the parish in Göttersdorf . A total of almost five hectares of land were bequeathed to the new settlers. In the first half of the 17th century, Gersdorf was attached to the Priesen estate . In 1655 there were 17 houses in Gersdorf. When the Rothenhaus rule was divided, Gersdorf became part of the Hagensdorf rule in 1680 . By 1755 the place had grown to 20 houses. Since 1789 there was a single-class village school in Gersdorf. The residents of the place lived mainly from cattle breeding and wood processing. Due to the harsh climate, agriculture was not very productive. Around 1800 the village began to expand significantly. In 1843 a school building was built. At that time Gersdorf consisted of 28 houses, a mill and a sawmill and had 82 inhabitants.
After the abolition of patrimonial Gersdorf formed from 1850 a district of the political community Göttersdorf in the judicial district of Görkau or in the district of Komotau . In 1880 Gersdorf became an independent municipality. In 1900 the place had 223 inhabitants who lived in 36 houses. The tourist development of the village began in the first half of the 20th century. The Czech name Gerštorf has also been used since 1921. In 1930, 177 people lived in the 39 houses in Gersdorf. After the Munich Agreement , the community was added to the German Reich in 1938 and belonged to the Komotau district until 1945 . In 1939 the community had 169 inhabitants. After the end of World War II Gerštorf came back to Czechoslovakia and the German residents were expelled . In 1950 the village had only 19 residents who lived in eight houses. 1951 Gerštorf was incorporated into Blatno and renamed Mezihoří on April 25, 1952. In the 1960s, Mezihoří became a winter sports center. The number of inhabitants fell to seven by 1970 and only two houses were permanently inhabited. In 1991 the village consisted of 94 holiday homes in addition to two residential houses and had ten permanent residents. In 2001 the village consisted of 8 houses in which 2 people lived.
