history

Mykulaschowicze was first mentioned in writing in 1335, when Jimram von Ausperg's daughter Jeruše gave the village to the Doubravník Augustinian monastery. In 1290 the village is mentioned as Niklowitz . The place name is derived from the German name Nikl (short form of Nikolaus ), in the sense of Dorf des Nikl (Niklsdorf). After the destruction of the monastery by the Hussites , Mikulášovice fell back to the Lords of Pernstein. In 1590 they sold the village and it became part of the Kunstadt rule . In the Josephine cadastre of 1789 the place was called Niklowitz.

After the abolition of patrimonial Mikulovice / Niklowitz formed a municipality in the Boskovice district . In the following the village was also called Niklovice and since the beginning of the 20th century as Nyklovice. In 1949 the community came to Okres Bystřice nad Pernštejnem and from 1961 to Okres Žďár nad Sázavou . Between 1976 and 1990 Nyklovice was incorporated into Rovečné . Nyklovice has had a coat of arms and a banner since 1997. There is an outdoor swimming pool in the village.
