history

The original street village was built at the beginning of the 13th century along the old trade route from Teschen to Troppau on a ferry across the Oderschleifen . A little later, Landeck Castle was built opposite the village . Prsiewoz was mentioned for the first time in writing in 1377 in a document from the episcopal feudal court in Olomouc in a case against the feudal man Friedrich von Kotojedy for robbery. After the village was divided into two parts in 1389, Mathias Felkel von Czechendorf reunited both parts in 1524. In 1555 the town of Mährisch Ostrau bought the village for 3700. Privoz remained one of the Moravian Ostrava council villages until the end of patrimonial rule. After the Silesian division, the Moravian village was from 1742 to 1918 on the border triangle between Moravia , Prussian Silesia and Austrian Silesia .

In 1843 there were 424 people in Privoz. With the construction of the Kaiser-Ferdinand-Nordbahn in 1847, Priwoz was connected to the main line from Vienna to Krakow. The Mährisch Ostrau-Privoz train station was built 500 meters southwest of the village in an open field. In 1849 the Klein brothers opened the František coal mine, which produced the first coal two years later.

From 1850 Privoz formed a municipality in the Mistek district . Salomon Rothschild had a connecting railway to his Witkowitz ironworks and the Caroline mine built, which was completed in 1855. The Kaiser-Ferdinands-Nordbahn bought the mine railway and built it further to Michalkowitz in 1862 and finally to Dombrowa and Orlau in 1870 . After the kk priv. Ostrau-Friedlander Eisenbahn from Priwoz to Friedland had started operating in 1869, the Priwoz station had become one of the largest railway nodes on the Ferdinands-Nordbahn. In 1882 a bridge was built over the Oder for the road to Hultschin . Due to the increasing mining, the village grew and several miners' colonies emerged. The planned expansion of Priwoz into an urban structure was entrusted to the Viennese architect Camillo Sitte , who later received the honorary citizenship of Priwoz for his services. According to Sitte's plans, a town hall and a parish church were built in the 1890s. Apartment houses were built for the railroad workers and industrial workers. In the 1890s Privoz was assigned to the Moravian Ostrau district. In 1894 a tram connection was established with Mährisch Ostrau. On August 2, 1900, the community, which had grown to 10,873 inhabitants, was raised to the status of a city. At that time the place became a mining town dominated by German-speaking residents (in 1900 5304 or 48.8%). She passed the resolution to change the city name in Oderfurt , which came into effect at the beginning of 1903. At that time the Poles were the third largest minority in the city (1900: almost 2000 or 20%), but they later quickly became Czech. In 1909 a large coking plant started operations. There was also a zinc rolling mill, a mineral oil refinery, a machine factory and a railway workshop.

On the basis of the urban development plan drawn up by Sitte, the workers' settlement at the František mine was built from 1870 to 1926, another at the František coking plant followed between 1906 and 1926 and the third colony on the Oder between 1910 and 1912. After the founding of Czechoslovakia, it was renamed Přívoz in 1920. In the same year, the Hultschiner Ländchen to the north was incorporated, making Přívoz no longer a border town with the German Empire. In 1921 the city had 17,351 inhabitants. In 1924 Přívoz was incorporated into Moravian Ostrava in the course of plans to create a "Great Ostrau". Since 1990, the district together with Moravská Ostrava forms the municipality of Moravská Ostrava a Přívoz . In 1991 the place had 4280 inhabitants. In 2001 Přívoz consisted of 357 houses in which 4691 people lived.
