history
The first written mention of Polyhrad came in 1290 when Bohuslav von Hora left the village to the deanery chapter of St. Vitus in Prague. During the Hussite Wars , the place came to secular owners. In 1436, Emperor Sigismund pledged the canons of the St. Vitus chapter to Oldřich von Polirady. In 1494 it belonged to Jindřich von Vřesovice, who named it Jiří von Polerady. Between 1507 and 1547 the village belonged to the city of Nymburk and was then confiscated because of their participation in the anti-Habsburg uprising. Polerady, together with Sudovo Hlavno , Hrádek (Komorní Hrádek) and Přerov nad Labem, was transferred to the Burgraviate of Prague and joined the Chamber of Commerce of Brandý .
Jan Polehradský von Polehrady owned the Freihof in the second half of the 16th century. He was followed by Adam Ginterod von Ginterode and Polehrady from 1615 .
In 1788, Polerady consisted of 25 residential buildings. After the abolition of patrimonial rule, the municipality of Polerady , belonging to the Karlín district, was established in 1850 . The village experienced an economic boom with the development of the sugar industry and the construction of the railway from Neratovice via Brandýs to Čelákovice. In 1906 the municipality was incorporated into the Brandýs nad Labem District. Since 1961 it belongs to the Okres Praha-východ.
Gau Polerady
In various sources, Polerady is called one of the oldest places in Bohemia. In 1788 the topographer Josef Schaller published a second volume as a continuation of Gelasius Dobner's Monumenta historica Bohemiae nusquam antehac , in which he mentioned a "Gau Polerady" supposedly existing before the founding of Stará Boleslav , for which there is no historical basis. In 1906, a square rampart was drawn on the map of the Karolinenthal district administration northeast of the village, but it has not existed since the railway was built. It is possible that this complex, known as the Viereckschanzen in the literature , was of Celtic origin, but it is more likely that it belonged to the Swedish fortifications left of the Elbe from the Thirty Years War.
