history

Castle (1916)

The foundation of the village is dated to 1261. It is believed that it was done by Arno von Kaaden on the instructions of King Přemysl Ottokar II . Originally the village was called Brunhartsdorf , but also Villa Brumarsdorf , Brunnersdorf , Bruneri villa , Prunerivilla , Prunerzow etc.

In the 14th century the village belonged to the Pürstein Castle ( Perštejn ). In 1431 Alesch and Wilhelm von Schönburg split in half. Altbrunnersdorf ( Starý Prunéřov ) with the church belonged to Wilhelm, who sold his part to Wilhelm von Eilenburg in 1449 .

From 1453 the Vitzthums are owned by the castle and Alt Brunnersdorf , first Bernhard, then Johann, and in the years 1525–1555 Wolf Dietrich, until 1557 his son Leo, an enthusiastic Lutheran and finally his mother Eleonora. The second part of the village, which had been awarded to Alesch von Schönburg in 1431, was bought by Nikolaus II Lobkowicz von Hassenstein in 1445 . Leo von Vitzthum bought it from him in 1577. Both districts were thus reunited.

In 1590 there was a division between the brothers Christoph and Bohuslaus Felix von Vitzthum, who inherited the Meierhöfeügelhof (Pigelhof) and Mohr (Mory) and Altbrunnersdorf (Starý Prunéřov). He built his fortress onügelhof, and towards the end of the 16th century he had a renaissance castle built in Brunnersdorf . Bohuslaus Felix von Vitzthum then took over Malkau (Malkov). During his reign, feudal labor was partially converted into labor for wages.

After the battle of the White Mountain , the royal council confiscated all of Vitzthum's property and on October 30, 1623 transferred a part to Jaroslav Borsita, Count von Martinic . This was the second and last time that both districts were united. Martinic bought Hagensdorf ( Ahníkov ), which was also confiscated from the Stampach family after the battle of the White Mountain.

The Martinic family renovated and expanded large parts of the castle in 1630. The Thirty Years War meant poverty and suffering for Brunnersdorf.

From 1655 the lands in the rulership of Hagensdorf-Brunnersdorf came to the third son of Jaroslav Borsitas, Maximilian Valentin. After 1678 the goods Hagensdorf and Brunnersdorf were divided again. Brunnersdorf belonged to the eldest son Jaroslav Bernhard, who died in 1685 without a successor. Brunnersdorf together with Hassenstein Castle (Hasištejn) was inherited by his younger brother Georg Adam, lord of Smečno and Slaný .

After him, his eldest son Adolf Bernhard took over the land in 1714 and Franz Michael in 1735. The Church of Saints Peter and Paul has been reconstructed. After his death in 1773 the Brunnersdorf branch of Martinitz died out. Franz Karl von Martinic took over the entire estate on Hagensdorf ( Ahníkov ). However, this was also the last male ancestor. After his death, Franz Michael's daughter, Maria Anna Countess von Althann, inherited the entire estate, which consisted of 42 villages and settlements. She bequeathed the property to her daughter Maria Anna Countess von Firmian, who was followed in 1840 by her nephew Karl Friedrich Otto Graf Wolkenstein-Trostburg. The next owner was Franz Preidl Edler von Hassenbrunn , followed by the industrialists Emanuel Karsch the Elder . Ä and d. J., who were expropriated in 1945.

In 1794 a parish, school, poor house, brewery, distillery, box factory and a manor with sheep stables belonged to the castle. In 1873 the Buschtěhrad Railway opened the 12 km long route to Chomutov . The highest number of inhabitants reached the village in 1930 with 2324 inhabitants and 320 houses. On January 1, 1966, Prunéřov became a district of Kadaň. In 1991 the place had 61 inhabitants. In 2001 the village consisted of 20 houses in which 336 people lived.
