The register drawn up by the archbishop notary Jindřich Hezlín von Humpolec for the purpose of levying a special tax in support of King Wenceslas IV shows Olešná as one of 33 villages in the Thein domain . On August 20th, 1415 Archbishop Konrad von Vechta had to pledge the rule to Jan von Sobětice as a result of mismanagement. In 1416 the pledge was completely transferred to him. After the Battle of White Mountain , the rulership was confiscated and returned as a whole to the Archdiocese of Prague by King Ferdinand II .

In 1840 Woleschna / Wolessna consisted of 52 houses with 412 inhabitants. The remote village included a mill, a half-farmer and six Dominikal houses. The parish was Křesstiowitz ( Chřešťovice ). In 1848 457 people lived in the place. The residents lived from agriculture and handicrafts. Until the middle of the 19th century, the village always remained subject to the archbishopric Moldau-Thein.

After the abolition of patrimonial formed Volešná / Woleschna 1850 a district of the municipality Podolí in the district administration and the judicial district Písek. In 1870 Volešná became independent, in 1887 Rastory was reassembled from the municipality of Křenovice. The official name of the municipality has been Olešná since 1924 . In 1949 Olešná was assigned to the Okres Milevsko; after its abolition, she came to the end of 1960 písek district back, while the incorporation took place after Podolí I . After a referendum, Olešná broke away from Podolí I on November 24, 1990 and formed its own community. Olešná is now a resort; There are 49 holiday homes and 42 holiday cabins in the municipality.
