history

According to tradition, the village was founded by a petty aristocrat named Rohan and was originally called Rohanice . The first written mention of Rohenice was in 1356. It can be assumed that at that time there was already a plebany or parish in the village. In 1361 Mutina von Dobruška donated a half-hoof to the church in Rohenice and a tithe from the Hlohov manor. In the 14th century the village was called Rohynice or Rochynice . Together with the Městec estate near Nahořany , Jan Mikuláš Sendražský von Sendražice also sold half of the church patronage to Vojtěch von Pernstein in 1525 . In the middle of the 16th century, the Trčka von Lípa lords acquired the village and added it to their Opočno lordship. In 1544 , a farmhouse belonged to the Tamchynové z Doubravic lords on Vranov. From the Opočner land register from 1582 it emerges that Rohenice consisted of 10 farmsteads and three chalets without field ownership.

After the death of Jan Rudolf Trčka von Lípa , the Opočno domain was confiscated by King Ferdinand II and pledged to the brothers Hieronymus and Rudolf von Colloredo-Waldsee in 1635 . In the description of the Opočno dominion published in 1651 ( Popsání lidí živých i mrtvých při zámku jeho exelence p. Generála Feldmaršála hraběte Coloreda opočenského, 2. máje 1651 ), Rohenice is described as a village with 74 mostly Protestant inhabitants, with no more hope for there was a turn to Catholicism. During the War of the Bavarian Succession , Austrian and Prussian troops met on July 10, 1778 in the area between Rohenice, Jasenná and Králova Lhota, with the Prussian command post north of Rohenice in the Žďár forest; the short skirmishes are known as Srážka u Dobenína a Králové Lhoty ( skirmishes at Dobenin and Königs-Lhota ). In 1789 the rule fell to the Counts Colloredo- Mannsfeld, they held it until the middle of the 19th century.

In 1836 the village of Groß-Rohenitz in the Königgrätzer Kreis consisted of 38 houses in which 244 people, including 29 Protestants, lived. There was a Catholic branch church of John the Baptist in the village. The Catholic parish was Mezritsch , the Protestant prayer house was in a monastery . Until the middle of the 19th century, the village remained subject to the Opočno manor. At that time the place consisted entirely of timbered houses.

After the abolition of patrimonial formed Velké Rohenice 1849 with the district Malé Rohenice a municipality in the judicial district Opočno . From 1868 the community belonged to the Neustadt an der Mettau district . Since the end of the 19th century, Rohenice was used as a municipality name. Before the First World War, the municipality comprised 345 hectares of fields, meadows, pastures and gardens; 19 hectares of this belonged to the church. The large village square with an oval floor plan was parceled out and built on after 1915. By order of the linguistic commission in Prague on June 23, 1923 the official place names of both parts of the municipality were changed; Velké Rohenice became Rohenice and Malé Rohenice became Roheničky. In the course of the land reform, the community acquired the 8.7 hectare meadow land of the desert pond Tůří for 27,000 Kč from the landowner Josef Bartoň-Dobenín from 1924 to 1925 and divided it among 20 families; later the pond was restored. In 1930 288 people lived in the community's 73 houses. The electrification took place in 1935. In 1949 the municipality was assigned to the Okres Dobruška. In the course of the territorial reform of 1960 the Okres Dobruška was abolished and Rohenice was assigned to the Okres Rychnov nad Kněžnou ; at the same time it was incorporated into České Meziříčí . The parish has existed again since November 24, 1990.
