history
The lumberjack settlement was established around 1800 at the northern foot of the Spitzenberg directly on the Bohemian- Passau border, which was precisely defined at that time, in the forests of the Krumau allodial rule belonging to Prince Schwarzenberg . The first written mention of the settlement, initially called Spitzenberg , took place in 1793. In 1823 there were 23 houses in the scattered settlement.
In 1840 the Dominikaldorf Neuthal , also known as Spitzenberg bei Böhmisch-Röhren , consisted of 25 houses with 231 inhabitants. The residents were woodcutters. There was a princely hunter's house in the village. The Neuthaler Revier, one of the dominion's 19 forest districts, managed forest areas with an area of 4632 yoke 625 square fathoms . The Dominikalmühle "Neumühle" was located on the Cold Vltava. The parish was Bohemian-Röhren ( České Žleby ). Until the middle of the 19th century Neuthal remained subject to the allodial rule of Krumlov.
After the abolition of patrimonial Neuthal formed a district of the community Neuofen in the judicial district of Oberplan from 1850 . From 1868 the village belonged to the Krumlov district . In 1884 a customs office was set up on the Bavarian side of the border. After the formation of the municipality of Tusset , Neuthal came to Tusset in 1898 as a district. Between 1908 and 1910, the United Bohemian Forest Local Railways extended the Wodňan – Wallern railway via Neuthal to Haidmühle in Bavaria and made a connection with the Budweis – Oberplan line at the Black Cross . With the commissioning of the railway line Waldkirchen – Haidmühle built by the Royal Bavarian State Railways from November 1910, a railway connection between Passau and Budweis or Prachatitz was established; The Haidmühle station was the border station. At that time Neuthal consisted of 34 houses and had 271 inhabitants, including 259 Germans. In the village there was a forester's house, a Hegerhaus and the Neumühle. An increasing number of day trippers and summer visitors came to Neuthal by train. After the founding of Czechoslovakia , a station for the Czechoslovak gendarmerie and a financial guard were set up in Neuthal. In 1921, 273 people lived in the 35 houses in Neuthal. The Czech place name Nové Údolí was introduced in 1924. In 1930 Neuthal had grown to 40 houses and had 298 residents. The village infrastructure included the train station, a school, the Schwarzenberg forest house, the gendarmerie station and the finance station, two guest houses with overnight stays, a dance hall, a syringe house and a shop. In October 1938, as a result of the Munich Agreement , the village was added to the German Reich and until 1945 belonged to the Prachatitz district . After the end of the Second World War , Nové Údolí came back to Czechoslovakia and was reassigned to Okres Český Krumlov. Cross-border rail traffic to Bavaria was discontinued. The German-Bohemian population of Nové Údolí was largely expelled due to the Beneš decrees and the place was repopulated with Czechs. In 1948 Nové Údolí was assigned to the Okres Prachatice . After the February revolution of 1948, a four-kilometer-wide border zone was created along the border. In the course of the construction of the Iron Curtain , in addition to Nové Údolí, the villages of Radvanovice, Krásná Hora, Horní Cazov, Dolní Cazov and Na Spálenci were evacuated and razed to the ground. The tracks between Nové Údolí station and the state border were torn out at kilometer 69.650. Only one barn remained from Nové Údolí. From 1951 a group of Pohraniční stráž was stationed in the former gendarmerie station Nové Údolí . The Nové Údolí - Haidmühle border crossing was later reopened for local border traffic ; it was used exclusively for exporting wood to Bavaria. In 1977 passenger traffic to the border zone was also stopped, and the trains ended up in Stožec from then on. Since the section to Nové Údolí was still needed for the export of wood, it was retained; however, it was cordoned off with a gate and barbed wire fences were erected along the tracks. The detachment of the Pohraniční stráž was moved to the new barracks in Stožec in the 1980s and the barracks building in Nové Údolí was demolished.
After the Velvet Revolution, passenger trains to Nové Údolí were resumed on June 30, 1990. In the 1990s, the border between Nové Údolí and Haidmühle was again opened to the public for pedestrians and cyclists. In 1994, the Pošumavská jižní dráha association was established , symbolically renewing the 100 m track across the border, and in May 1997 started operating the museum railroad on this section. In 1999 the Chata Nové Údolí was built, which today operates as the Hotel Nové Údolí .
