history
The first written mention of the place took place in 1447. Okrouhlá belonged to the estates of the monastery Hradisko and was assigned to the provost of Knínice . In 1490, Wladislaw Jagiellos granted the abbot Jan of the Hradisko Monastery to pledge the Knínice provost to Jindřich von Jezera and Vítek von Ptení. In 1499 Ladislav von Boskowitz received the Knínice goods with the towns of Knínice and Svitávka and the villages of Světlá , Cetkovice , Šebetov , Uhřice , Kořenec , Úsobrno and Okrouhlá as pledge. Later the rule came back to the Hradisch Monastery. In the course of the 16th century, Šebetov was expanded to become a new mansion and the order had a large castle built there as a residence. After the abolition of the monastery in the course of the Josephine reforms, its goods fell to the religious fund in 1784. In 1825 Karl Graf Strachwitz bought the Šebetov estate. His son Moritz Graf Strachwitz inherited the property in 1837.
After the abolition of patrimonial Okrouhlá formed with the settlement Melkov from 1850 a municipality in the district authority Boskovice . Between 1860 and 1865 the Karl Octavius estates belonged to Lippe-Weißenfeld . In 1865 the Counts of Strachwitz briefly became the owners of the Šebetov estates again. In the course of foreclosure in the same year, the Viennese factory owner Johann May bought the property, which he sold to Moritz von Königswarter in 1877 . In 1906 a one-story schoolhouse was built. In 1928 the municipality became a member of the Středomoravského lesního družstva ( Central Moravian Forest Cooperative ) , which was founded in the same year . In the following year the community forest was planted on the Klenč. The birch avenue to Kořenec was planted in 1932. At the beginning of 1961 Okrouhlá was assigned to the Okres Blansko . In 1965 a house of culture was inaugurated. The primary school in the village closed in 1980. In 1985, Okrouhlá was incorporated into Benešov . In 1990 the Okrouhlá community was re-established. Okrouhlá has had a coat of arms and a banner since 2000.
