history

The village was founded as a forest hoof village during the state development . The first written mention took place in 1274, when Bishop Bruno von Schauenburg enfeoffed a feudal man Mravík with Muritz . The Lords of Krawarn later bought the estate. Since 1411 the village is documented among the estates of Stralenberg Castle; When Latzek (I.) von Krawarn auf Helfenstein freed his Stralenberg subjects from reversion that year , Morcov is listed among the 16 villages belonging to the castle. Around 1430 the Lords of Cimburg acquired the rule. In 1437, the executors of Ctibor von Cimburg and Křídlo sold his entire goods to Wilhelm Puklitz von Posoritz on Alttitschein. A wooden church was built around the same year. The robber barons Puklitz von Posoritz later sold the rule to Heinrich von Boskowicz and Czernahor . In 1478, his sons Tobias and Benedikt von Boskowicz and Czernahor sold the Stramberg estate with the town of Stramberg and eleven villages, including Morkow , to Benedikt von Hustopetsch. Benedikt's son Latzek von Hustopetsch sold the reign in 1531 to Bernard von Zierotin on Fulnek , who bequeathed it to his nephew Viktorin the following year. After the death of Viktorin von Zierotin, his two sons shared the inheritance in 1533; Wilhelm received Alttitschein , his brother Friedrich got Neutitschein with the castle and the town of Stramberg as well as Morzkow and ten other villages. In 1558 the city of Neutitschein bought itself free from its subordination and also acquired Stramberg and the eleven villages. In the 16th century there was also a free court of the knight Jan Jeřábek von Mořkov. In 1587 Jakub Jeřábek von Mořkov had a stone church built in place of the small wooden church. Before the Thirty Years' War there was a parish in Mařkow , which also included Hodslavice and Veřovice ; the inscription on the bell of St. Andrew's Church, which was cast in 1614, commemorates the parish and the pastor Poniczky. After the Battle of the White Mountain, King Ferdinand II confiscated the town of Neutitschein and its goods in 1621, and in 1624 conferred rule on the Olomouc Jesuit Foundation. The parish expired during the war, the church was assigned to the parish of Seitendorf as a branch. In 1664 the Jesuits bought the Freihof for 4,000 guilders. The Germanized name Murkh is documented for the first time in 1676. Iron ore mining was carried out until the beginning of the 18th century. After the abolition of the Jesuit order , the reign of Neutitschein was transferred to the Theresian Knight Academy in Vienna in 1781 without the town of Neutitschein, which was again released from subordination in 1775 .

In 1835 the village Murk , also called Murký or Mořkow , in the Prerau district , consisted of 152 houses in which 1081 people lived, a quarter of them Protestants ( AB ). The main source of income was agriculture, especially cattle breeding. The branch church of St. Georg was under the patronage of the manor. Two mills were operated on the Titsch. The Catholic parish was Seitendorf; the Protestants had their prayer house in Hotzendorf . In 1844 a single-class village school was built next to the church. Murk remained subordinate to the Neu-Titschein rulership until the middle of the 19th century .

After the abolition of patrimonial formed Mořkov / Murk 1849 a municipality in the judicial district Neutitschein . From 1869 Mořkov belonged to the Neutitschein district. At that time the village had 1,315 inhabitants and consisted of 179 houses. The school building was extended in 1879 for two-class lessons. In 1888 the Moravian-Silesian city railway started running, at the southeast exit of the town a stop was built at Papakův potok, which was named Murk, main line / Mořkov hlavní trať after the opening of the local railway . The following year, the Hotzendorf-Neutitschein local railway line was opened, running through the fields halfway between Hodslavice and Mořkov. A Murk stop was also created on this route - on Hotzendorfer Flur . A Protestant private school was built between 1894 and 1895. In 1900 there were 1597 people living in Mořkov ; In 1910 it was 1700. Since the old village school had become too small, a new school building was built in 1910, in which five-class lessons began. The Murk stop was assigned to the Mořkov district at the beginning of the 20th century, and the Nové Domky settlement was established in its vicinity . In 1930 Mořkov consisted of 314 houses and 1902 inhabitants. After the Munich Agreement , the Moravian-speaking village was initially added to the German Reich in 1938. In the course of further border regulations, the community was spun off from the Neu Titschein district on November 24, 1938 and returned to Czechoslovakia . Until 1945 Mořkov was assigned to the newly formed Wallachisch Meseritsch district and came back to Okres Nový Jičín after the end of the war. In the years 1967–1968 the schoolhouse was expanded with two class pavilions and other additions. The community has had a coat of arms and a banner since 1998. In the 2001 census, there were 2374 people in Mořkov's 656 houses. The Hostašovice – Nový Jičín horní nádraží railway was closed in 2009 due to severe flood damage and then dismantled; In 2014, a cycle path was opened on their route.
