history
The old village Kopisty lay on the left bank of the Eger opposite České Kopisty and was first documented in 1141 in a donation list the Duchess Gertrude of Babenberg for with her husband Vladislav II. Donated monastery Doxan mentioned. Until the 17th century, the village was pledged several times to the citizens of Leitmeritz or taken as pledge by them in order to enforce claims against the monastery. In 1465 the name Německé Kopisti appears for the first time in a list of King George of Podebrady .
After the defeat in the Battle of Lobositz , planning began in Austria for the construction of fortifications. At the order of Emperor Joseph II , several areas were examined for strategically suitable locations, Budin also fell into the shortlist. On September 28 and 29, 1779, the area was also inspected by Deutsch Kopist and on January 10, 1780, the decision was made to build a fortress in Prague in the corridors of Deutsch Kopist and Drabschitz . In the spring of 1780, construction of the fortress began by the pioneer troops of General Karl Clemens Graf Pellegrini. Many residents of Deutsch Kopist, whose families had resided here for centuries, asked to keep their farms and refused to relocate to the newly allocated land. There were riots and after legal threats the place was abandoned. After the residents had fought for compensation in March 1781, the foundation stone for the new village, which originally consisted of 33 houses, was laid on April 19, 1781. A wooden cross from 1688 and a bell were moved from the old village to the new place.
In 1830, the German copyist had 252 inhabitants, and by 1890 the number of its inhabitants rose to 419. When the railway from Prague to Dresden was built, the German copyist received a train stop. The pastor's location was Bauschowitz , which was also the location of the school until the first school was built in 1898. By 1920 the population had grown to 630, the majority of whom belonged to the Czech ethnic group. The traditional rural village lived mainly from agriculture. In 1991 the place had 383 inhabitants. In 2001 the village consisted of 161 houses, in which 363 people lived.
Although Nové Kopisty is more than two kilometers away from the Elbe and Eger, it was mostly affected by floods due to its location in a depression. Therefore a lake was created in August 2002 as a flood catchment basin.
