history

Parish Church of St. Peter and Paul

The first documented mention of Podbořany comes from 1369. Podersam and Rudig belonged to the Benedictine monastery in Postelberg and in 1426 came into the possession of the von Guttenstein family. In 1535 the city belonged to the commander in chief of the city troops in the Schmalkaldic War . The Counts of Schlick then became owners. Christoph d. J. Schlick gave Podbořany city rights on November 11, 1575. In 1590 the city consisted of 77 houses. Until the middle of the 17th century Podbořany had seven city gates, the Upper, Lower, Rudiger, Kaadener, Letauer, Prager and Lubauer Tor, which were demolished until 1677. After the city was acquired in 1637 by Duke Julius Heinrich von Sachsen-Lauenburg , in 1689 it passed through his granddaughter to his son-in-law, Margrave Ludwig Wilhelm von Baden-Baden . In 1771 the estates fell to the Bohemian court chamber.

In 1837 Josef Ritter Schreitter von Schwarzenfeld acquired the Podersam estate. He sold it in 1843 to Hugo Karl Fürst and Altgraf zu Salm-Reifferscheid-Krautheim-Raitz. In 1900 it was bought by the Hielle and Dittrich company. As a result of the Czech land reform 1919–1923, the property of the Hielle & Dittrich company was confiscated.

In the second half of the 19th century the city experienced a considerable boom. Industry and commerce settled here. Nearby were kaolin - and Tonwerke operated. The earthenware and oven factory L. & C. Hardtmuth should be mentioned here. Between 1870 and 1872 the railway from Pilsen to Saaz was built by Italians and Croats. Podersam received its own train station in 1873. In 1900 the city had 3,068 inhabitants, of which 2,998 were German-speaking and 38 Czech-speaking.

After the First World War , Podersam was added to the newly created Czechoslovakia in 1919 . In 1934 the city bath was built.

Due to the Munich Agreement of 1938 place came to the German Reich and was until 1945 the district Podersam , Region of Eger , in the Reich District of Sudetenland . After the Second World War , Podersam came back to Czechoslovakia. The German population was expelled between 1945 and 1946 . This resulted in a massacre on June 7, 1945, in which 68 men from Podersam and the surrounding area were killed and then buried in the nearby element forest

In 1960 the Okres Podbořany was dissolved and the town became part of the Okres Louny .
