history

Radonice was first mentioned in a document in 1196, when the Cistercians of the Waldsassen monastery took possession of the area at the request of Milhost von Maschau. The deed of gift of June 20, 1196 was also countersigned by Hogir de Radonitz as a witness. There is evidence of a church since 1352. In the first half of the 15th century the property belonged to the brothers Nikolaus and Johann Lobkowicz von Hassenstein, who in 1434 jointly held the patronage of the parish. They were followed by the knights of Obrovice. In 1474 the Radonice fief with the villages of Čejkovice, Žabokliky, Libědice , Oploty and Kaštice was attached to the Kněžice estate. Vladislav II leased Kněžice to Benesch von Weitmühl . In the following time, the Winteritz rule came into being. Albrecht von Kolowrat sold Winteritz including the Radonitz estate in 1508 to Apel von Vitzthum on the Neuschönburg . At his request, Vladislav II raised Radonitz to the rank of town in 1514. This included privileges over brewing rights, the salt trade, handicrafts, market rights and miles rights. From 1528 city registers were kept. With the owner of the neighboring Willomitz estate , Wilhelm von Duppau, Apel von Vitzthum had numerous feuds. In 1530, imperial officials dug the Vitzthum coin forgery workshop on the Neuschönburg. Apel von Vitzthum, who was at a wedding party in Vlašim at the time , fled from Bohemia. Ferdinand I confiscated all of Apel von Vitzthum's possessions, and Wilhelm von Duppau was also suspected of fraud.

In 1532 the Bohemian Chamber sold the Winteritz estate with the town of Radonitz to Albrecht Graf Schlick . Subsequently, another upswing set in in Radonitz. The city was walled and provided with four gates. The town gate was built in 1533, the Winteritzer Gate in 1539, the Willomitzer Gate in 1584 and the Lower Maschauer Gate in 1594. In 1534 a brewery and malt house was built behind the church on the brook flowing over the market. After Hieronymus Schlick died in 1612 with no heirs, the inheritance fell to his relative Heinrich Matthias von Thurn on Winteritz. He fought during the uprising as a military leader of the rebels and lost his property after the battle of the White Mountain .

The imperial general Ferdinand Graf Nagarol became the new owner of the dominions of Winteritz, Sehrles and Wiedelitz in 1622. The city, evangelical since the time of the Schlicken, was re-Catholicized. In 1622 the dean Hagelius from Kaaden consecrated the church and appointed Johann Kometa as a Catholic pastor. The widow of General Nagarol forbade the media city to accept Jews in 1628 on threat of losing all privileges.

In the same year, the Spanish general Wilhelm Verdugo de la Scala († 1629) acquired the rule. He was followed by his widow, née Nagarol and, from 1650, his stepson Sebastian von Pötting . In 1651 he revoked the privileges granted by his predecessors and redrafted them. In the berní rula of 1654, 71 possessed residents with German names are reported for the city. At that time there were five butchers, four shoemakers, three bakers, tailors and carpenters, two blacksmiths, wheelwright, innkeepers and a cloth maker, bathers, tanners, organ builders, weavers, trumpet makers and potters based in Radonitz. In 1662 Emperor Leopold I granted the town the right to sell salt and grain. In 1663 Sebastian von Pötting confirmed the brewing rights and at the same time granted the city the right to dispense beer, wine and liqueur. In the following year the rule was sold to Johann Anton Losy von Losinthal . The old ailing rectory was torn down in 1738 and replaced by a new baroque building.

After the abolition of patrimonial Radonitz formed a municipality in the Kaaden district from 1850 . At that time, the Franziska brown coal mine on the left of the Aubache on the way to Willomitz and the Maria Theresia mine to the northeast of the city were added. A brickworks was built on the right of the Aubache on Willomitzer Weg. In 1869 Anton Jäger donated a new school building. This school was expanded to three classes in 1873 and four in 1874. At that time, 320 children were in school. A sugar factory was built behind the town on the road to Duppau in 1871. Just two years later, the factory had to file for bankruptcy. In 1884 the Kaschitz- Schönhof local railway was extended to Radonitz. According to plans by Josef Rödl, a spacious kindergarten was built in 1899 and a vocational school in 1901.

In 1902 the Kaadner Lokalbahnen started operating the railway line from Willomitz to Duppau. The sugar factory was bought and closed in 1910 by a consortium of the Bohemian sugar factories. In the following year it was sold to the Anton Springer & Sons company in Preßnitz , which had the production facilities expanded. Because of the increasing decline, the city of Radonitz bought the factory and intended to put it back into operation on its own. This did not succeed, however, and in 1917 the factory was sold to Count Ferdinand Lobkowicz on Winteritz. In 1920 he had a cabbage processing facility set up there, which was later relocated to the Löbl & Fuchs canning factory, later Schuh & Ziegler , founded in the same year . In 1923, the Juliane lignite mine was added to the right of the Aubach in the direction of Willomitz, and the Josef mine was built in the immediate vicinity. In 1930 the Juliane mine was closed. At that time, 921 people lived in Radonitz.

After the First World War , Radonitz was added to the newly created Czechoslovakia in 1919 . Due to the Munich agreement , the city came in 1938 to the German Reich and was until 1945 the district Kadan , Region of Eger , in the Reich District of Sudetenland . In 1939 Radonitz had 858 inhabitants.

During the Second World War , a labor camp of Stalag XIII B Weiden was set up in Radonitz. The former social democratic mayor Rudolf Valenta was interned in the Dachau concentration camp . He returned in 1942 and died the following year as a result of imprisonment. At the end of April 1945, two death marches led by hundreds of prisoners from the kaolin works in Kaaden through Radonitz. One led to Maschau and the other, 400 prisoners, moved to Saar and got lost in the Duppau Mountains . Five prisoners were shot near Radonitz. After the end of World War II, Radonice was taken over by Czechoslovakia, and most of the German population, except for indispensable miners, was expelled in 1946 . The brick factory was shut down in the 1950s. Around 1948 Radonice lost its town charter. In 1959, the mining of the last mine, the Františka ( Franziska ), was stopped. At the beginning of 1961 the community came to Okres Chomutov , and at the same time the communities Miřetice u Vintířova and Radechov were connected as districts. In 1976 Vintířov (with Háj, Kadaňský Rohozec, Kojetín, Vojnín, Vlkaň and Ždov) was incorporated. The canning factory stopped production in 1989.
