The first written mention of the place took place in 993, when Bishop Adalbert of Prague left the village to the Benedictine monastery Břevnov , which he founded . The Landessteig led via Přerov from Prague to Lysá nad Labem , which crossed the Elbe in a ford here. The monastery subsequently leased the goods in Přerov. The tenants included u. a. Kojata von Hněvin , who in 1227 presented his squire Konrad with Přerov. From 1266 Ranek von Přerov and from 1279 Matouš von Přerov as the owner. Around 1380 the monastery began to develop the Přerov fortress into an administrative center for its goods. However, these plans were not completed and Přerov finally leased to Michal Drštka ze Sedlčánek in 1400. He was followed by Petr von Trkov from 1419. After Trkov died during the Hussite Wars , the property fell to Emperor Sigismund . This pledged Přerov in 1437 to his chief steward Jindřich von Stráž. After his death, the chief judge of the Kingdom of Bohemia, Jiří Strážský von Stráž and Přerov inherited the property. Colonel Chancellor Johann von Schellenberg bought it from his daughter Johanka. The Schellenbergs promoted the place and in 1499 reached the elevation of Přerov by Vladislav II. To the town . The Bohemian Chamberlain Heinrich von Schellenberg sold Přerov in 1524 to the united Prague cities . After the anti-Habsburg uprising of 1547, Přerov was confiscated by King Ferdinand I and added to the Bohemian crown estates. In 1560 John the Elder Robe Head of Sucha (Robmhap ze Suché) was appointed the first captain of the royal chamber of Přerov. In the same year he commissioned Bonifatius Wohlmut to convert the fortress into a renaissance castle. Matteo Borgorelli and Ulrico Aostalli were also involved in the construction work, and between 1574 and 1605 they were continued by Ettore de Vaccani. A brewery, mill, sawmill, vineyard and hop garden were built under Robenhaupt.

From 1598 on, parts of the chamberlain began to be sold piece by piece. In 1601 Maria Magdalena von Lobkowitz entrusted the empty war chest of Rudolf II with 20,000 Meissnian shock and was assigned the villages of Vyšehořovice , Vykáň , Horoušany , Tatce and Pečky . In 1608 the king gave this property to her husband Jan Rudolf Trčka von Lípa as hereditary property and part of the Kounice estate . The remnants of the Přerov estate were attached to the Brandeis Chamberlain in 1632 . Subsequently, the complete decline of the town began, which was devastated by Swedish troops under Johan Banér . The castle, which was burned down by the Swedes, was rebuilt from 1671 by Santino de Bossi. This led to the crash of the north and west wings as well as parts of the east wing that were not rebuilt. From then on the castle served as a hunting lodge. In the course of the Josephine reforms, the settlement of New Prerau was founded at the northern foot of the Přerovská hůra. In 1844 Alt Prerau consisted of 95 houses and had 605 inhabitants.

After the abolition of patrimonial rule , the market town of Alt Prerau / Starý Přerov was established in 1850 with the district of Kocanda in the Bohemian Brod district . In addition, Neu Prerau / Nový Přerov also formed a community. In 1860 the abdicated Grand Duke of Tuscany, Leopold II , bought the Brandeis rule. He began with the restoration of the castle in Alt Prerau, which was completed after his death in 1870 by his son Archduke Ludwig Salvator in the years 1872 to 1873. In 1903 the communities Alt Prerau and Neu Prerau merged to form the community of Přerov nad Labem / Prerow on the Elbe.

When Archduke Ludwig Salvator died in 1915 without legitimate descendants, the aged Emperor Franz Joseph I inherited his property. He died the following year and the last Habsburg owner became Emperor Karl I. After the establishment of Czechoslovakia, the palace was nationalized and had been leased to the Young Women's Christian Association since the 1920s . With the intention of building a hydrotherapeutic sanatorium, the German doctor Faifar bought the castle during the Second World War. After the end of the war it was confiscated and assigned to the National Renewal Fund, which made it available to the Czechoslovak Radio from 1948 . Since 1961 the municipality of Přerov nad Labem belongs to the Okres Nymburk .
