history

During archaeological investigations in 1967 near Podhůří a settlement of the Knovíz culture from the period between 900 and 800 BC was found. Found from which its inhabitants are believed to be mining. The first written mention of the village of Schumburgh , which belonged to the Seeberg lordship, took place in 1542. In 1549 the place was called Ssombergk , in 1579 as Schönberg and in 1594 as Schonbrieg . When, after the death of Christoph von Carlowitz, his nephew Rudolf von Carlowitz sold the villages of Kunnersdorf , Schönberg and Ojes to the widow of Bohuslav the Elder from Michalovice on Seestadtl , Katharina Rubinin von Lwowitz, without the consent of his cousin Georg von Carlowitz, a dispute broke out between them both. In 1600 the village was subjected to the Görkau beer compulsory. In 1605 it was connected to Gut Seestadtl. After the Battle of White Mountain , the goods Bohuslav the Younger of Michalovice were confiscated and in 1622 to Wilhelm the Elder. J. von Lobkowicz sold. Since that time the village has belonged to the united rule Seeberg-Neundorf. In 1713 the place name Schimberg is first recorded . In the middle of the 18th century there were two mills in Schimberg. The inhabitants of the village lived mainly from agriculture and slaughter . After 1770 a lignite mine was built near Schimberg. The Schimberger coal, which was the best in the entire Komotau region, was mainly used as fuel in the Schimberger alum works and the Hohenofen iron works . Alum slate mining was stopped again in 1786. A chapel was built in 1775. The mining industry revived from 1836 when the entrepreneur Franz Tetzner began to drain the drained pits using pumps . The Karlschacht colliery and the associated Nathalienstollen were operated in the 1840s. The mine was shut down at the end of the 1850s due to heavy water access and economic crisis. Instead of the pumping system for mining, a cotton spinning mill was built. Josef Siegert's wood turner's workshop was later established there. At Siegert in 1848 300 rifles were illegally manufactured and confiscated for the National Guard.

After the abolition of patrimonial Schimberg / Schimberk formed from 1850 with a part of Hohenofen a district of the political community Neundorf an der Biele in the district of Komotau . At this time the Rechenberger paper mill was also established, which burned down and went out in 1870. In their place, Karl Braun set up a cellulose factory. In 1893 the chapel was enlarged. Between 1902 and 1904 Moritz von Lobkowicz had the Moritz dam built, half of which was on the corridors of Schimberg and Eisenberg . Since 1904 it has been supplying the villages of Kunnersdorf, Hütte, Eisenberg , Seestadtl and Holschitz with drinking water. The political community Schimberg / Šimperk was established in the 1920s. In 1930 Schimberg counted 352 Germans, three foreigners and two Czechs. After the Munich Agreement , the community was added to the German Reich in 1938 and belonged to the Komotau district until 1945 . In 1939 Schimberg had 329 inhabitants. After the Second World War, the place came back to Czechoslovakia and the German residents were expelled . 1950 was the renaming of the municipality Šimperk in Podhůří. The Jezerka nature reserve was created on January 20, 1969.

In 1979 the decision to evacuate the village was made due to subsidence. Most of Podhůří was then removed. The preserved houses were added to the cadastre of Vysoká Pec. The Podhůří district officially went out on September 11, 1990.
