history
The Upper Lusatian manor Niederweigsdorf was severely fragmented in the 17th century. After the Peace of Prague of 1635, the shares belonged to both the Electorate of Saxony and the Kingdom of Bohemia . One of them was the Niederweigsdorf plant belonging to Saxony.
In 1768 the owner of the Niedvorwerk, Caspar Heinrich von Minckwitz , founded the village of Neu-Minkwitz on an exclave belonging to the estate on the Wittig in the Bohemian rule of Friedland . In 1788 Johann Georg von Einsiedel acquired the Niedervorwerk Niederweigsdorf with Neu-Minkwitz and slammed the estate into his rulership of Reibersdorf . In the 19th century the place name Minkwitz prevailed. Parish was Weigsdorf . As a result of the border recession between Saxony and Bohemia in 1848, large parts of the Niedervorwerkfluren and the exclave Minkwitz and Dörfel were transferred to Bohemia, making them part of the newly formed municipality of Böhmisch Weigsdorf .
After the abolition of patrimonial Minkwitz formed from 1850 a district of the municipality Böhmisch Weigsdorf in the Bunzlauer Kreis and judicial district Friedland . From 1868 the village belonged to the Friedland district . The Reichenberg-Seidenberg railway line was built between 1872 and 1875 . At the end of the 19th century Minkvic was used as a Czech form of name, since 1924 the name Minkovice has been used. After the Munich Agreement , it was incorporated into the German Reich in 1938; until 1945 Minkwitz belonged to the Friedland district . After the end of the Second World War, Minkovice came back to Czechoslovakia, in 1946 and 1947 most of the German-Bohemian residents were expelled. In the course of the dissolution of the Okres Frýdlant, Minkovice was assigned to the Okres Liberec in 1960. In 1991 Minkovice had 129 inhabitants. In 2001 the village consisted of 46 houses in which 124 people lived.
In Minkovice the maypole is set every year with a folk festival.
