history

The village of Předslav with the parish church was first mentioned in writing in 1352 as the property of Jeník von Předslav. However, both are much older. Since the former main portal of the church dates between 1240 and 1250, it is assumed that it was built in the first half of the 13th century. According to ancient traditions, the church is said to have been built on a Celtic sacrificial site. The Předslav parish was abolished in the 17th century and the church was closed as a branch of the Němčice parish. Předslav remained an independent estate until the beginning of the 18th century, after which the owners came from various regional families of the lower nobility. In the 15th century, they included Beneš from Újezdec and Ondřej and Půta from Předslav. At the transition from the 15th to the 16th century the manor belonged to Karel Říčanský, later Bavor and Anna Sádlo von Kladrubec acquired most of the property. In 1704 Karl Albrecht Příchovský of Příchovice acquired the goods Mlázovy and Předslav and united them with Otín. In 1735 Victoria von Unwerth bought the Otín and Předslav estates and added them to her lordship of Obitz . In 1788 a parish was established again in Předslav.

A linden avenue leads from the church to Otín, it was laid out at the beginning of the 18th century by Karl Albrecht Příchovský von Příchovice and is now also known as Palacký avenue.
