history

Archaeological finds indicate that the area was originally inhabited since the Paleolithic .

In the 13th and 14th centuries, the areas north and north-east of Hranice were colonized by the Benedictine Abbey of Rajhrad . Some of the villages founded at this time became extinct again by the 16th century.

Šovejda was one of these places. After the village was founded, it belonged to the Hranice estate, which was owned by the Hradisko monastery for almost 300 years . Due to the burdens of the Bohemian-Hungarian War from 1468 to 1471, the monastery ran into financial difficulties and had to pledge the Hranice estate. In 1499 it was bought by Wilhelm II of Pernstein , and the village Šovejda was mentioned when it was entered in the country table . A little later it must have died, in the tax register of 1516 it was mentioned as desolate. The village of Olšovec with 14 settler sites is found in this directory for the first time. Most of the Šovejda corridors with five and a half hooves and a meadow belonged to Olšovec at that time. In 1540, Johann von Pernstein allowed the residents of Olšovec to purchase their fields in the Šovejda corridors. In the small valley southeast of Olšovec in the direction of Velká, where Šovejda used to be, two smaller stately fish ponds were created, which were abandoned in the 17th century. During the reign of Johann von Pernstein, the Reformation arrived and the teaching of the German Reformation spread in Weißkirchen and the surrounding villages.

1547 later Johann von Pernstein sold the rule Weißkirchen to Wenzel Haugwitz von Biskupitz. This left the property in 1553 to Jan Kropáč of Nevědomí. In 1559, Kropáč allowed the brothers to build a parish church in Weißkirchen. In the same year, the Brethren von Weißkirchen acquired the place and built their garden of the dead on part of the field, which was expanded in 1568. Jan Kropáč's daughter and heiress Anna married Johann the younger of Zerotein after the death of her husband Jan von Kunovice . He was succeeded by Dietrich von Kunowitz, who handed over the rule to Zdeněk von Pottenstein and Žampach in the course of an exchange in 1600. Karl Berger von Berg was the owner between 1610 and 1612. He was followed by Václav Mol von Modřelice. Its goods were confiscated after the Battle of White Mountain in 1621 and sold to Cardinal Franz Xaver von Dietrichstein in the following year . The Dietrichstein family remained the owners of the goods until the 20th century.

After the abolition of patrimonial Olšovec became an independent municipality in the district administration Mährisch Weißkirchen in 1850. In 1902 August Janeček opened the quarry, in which up to 100 people later worked. In 1942 the Janeček quarry was closed and after the Second World War it was reopened in 1945 as part of the Zlín paint factory , later Svit. Due to the poor quality of the rock, operations were closed on October 1, 1964. The site then served as a transshipment point and for asphalt production. After a fire in the wooden factory buildings from 1912, the site was abandoned in 1966 and the area was reforested. The flooded quarry is now used as a bathing lake. On October 13, 1944, 16 aerial bombs were dropped on the southern part of the Šovejda desert, the target of which was probably the one and a half kilometers south of the Hranice train station. After the Second World War, the Boňkov municipality was incorporated into Olšovec. In the course of the territorial reform of 1960 and the dissolution of the Okres Hranice, Olšovec was assigned to the Okres Přerov on January 1, 1961 . On May 1, 1976, Olšovec was incorporated into Hranice and formed the district of Hranice X-Olšovec there. In 1991 Olšovec regained its independence. The Olšovec municipality has had a coat of arms and a banner since 1998.
