The first written mention of the village Ratzici took place in 1227 in the will of Kojatas IV of Hrabischitz , in which he bequeathed the Drnovice castle to his nieces Eufemie and Svatochňa. The property passed through Svatochňa to her husband Idik von Schwabenitz . Račice Castle was built between 1275 and 1285. Subsequently, the seat of the manor was moved from Drnovice to Račice. In 1285 Milota von Drnovice from the Swabian family first used the Račice title . King Johann had the castle conquered and torn down in 1312 as a hideout for the robber baron Friedrich von Linau ( Friduš z Linavy ). A little later it was restored and from 1346 belonged to Heinrich von Leipa . Around 1350 the Lords of Sternberg acquired the rule.

The first mention of Pístovice took place on December 13, 1375 in two documents in which Albrecht von Sternberg carried out the court-ordered transfer of the Račice castle with the villages Račice, Drnovice, Pístovice, Sokolí, Ježkovice and Nosálovice to his cousin Peter von Sternberg. Markwart von Sternberg sold Račice with all accessories in 1399 to Peter Krawarn von Plumlov . The Plumlov neckties died out in 1466 with Peter's son Jiří in the male line. When the property was divided under Jiřís four daughters, the Račice estates fell to Kunka, who was married to Wenceslaus von Boskowitz . He was followed by Ladislav von Boskowitz and in 1510 his son Christoph. Via Susanne Černohorská von Boskowitz, ownership passed to Hans Haugwitz von Biskupitz in 1568 . In 1596 the Haugwitz sold the rule to Bernart Petřvaldský von Petřvald. After the Battle of the White Mountain , Hans von Peterswald's goods were confiscated and sold to Karl Willinger von Schönenperg in 1623. Further owners were from 1629 Simon Kratzer von Schönsberg, from 1630 Horacius Forno and his son Karl Franz and from 1670 the Count Braida, who owned Račice with a few interruptions until 1800. They sold the property to Johann Franz Heinisch von Haydenburg, from whom Johann Huschka von Ratschitzburg acquired it in 1802. Huschka leased the estate to the entrepreneur Wilhelm von Mundy at the beginning of the 19th century and sold it to Antonín Hermann in 1830.

After the abolition of patrimonial Pístovice and Račice formed from 1850 independent communities in the district administration Wischau . During the Sudeten crisis , Ludvík Krejčí moved the general staff of the Branná moc mobilization army to Račice and the surrounding area on September 26, 1938 . The castle became the seat of the general command and the operational department. The staff organization department was in Pístovice. In 1960 both communities were merged under the name Račice-Pístovice .
