The place is mentioned for the first time as Reuzentorff in a document from 1367 . It was located on an old trade route from Prague via Saaz in the direction of Leipzig, which led over the Pressnitz Pass . Many of the inhabitants used to be carters who came to south-east Europe as grain traders. In addition, lace was made in the village .

In 1872 Reischdorf received a station on the Komotau – Weipert line of the Buschtěhrad Railway Company (BEB). The project to extend the narrow-gauge railway Wolkenstein – Jöhstadt from the Saxon town of Jöhstadt via Preßnitz (Přísečnice) to Reischdorf later failed for financial reasons.

After 1945, the German population of the place was almost completely expelled, a resettlement with Czechs was only partially successful. In 1948 Reischdorf received the new Czech name Rusová. In 1964 Rusová was incorporated into Kryštofovy Hamry. In connection with the construction of the Preßnitz dam, Rusová was cleared in the early 1970s and demolished by 1974.

A baroque column with a statue of the Good Shepherd dating from 1715 - included in the State Register of Cultural Monuments on May 3, 1958 - was dismantled and rebuilt in Hora Svatého Šebestiána .

The ruin of the station was the last remaining building to be demolished in 2012. Today, the bush and tree-lined desert and a restored war memorial are reminiscent of the village.

Today there are several wind farms in the area.
