history
The first written mention of Rohozná comes from the year 1209. The place had its greatest heyday in the 13th century due to the silver mining and was at that time exclusively inhabited by Germans.
Rohozná was the largest and richest village in the Pelhřimov estate , which Adam Říčanský of Říčany sold to Jan Trčka of Lípa in the 16th century . At the beginning of the 17th century, a plague epidemic broke out, from which almost all residents died. The few survivors who had fled to Pelhřimov had to pay dearly to the townspeople for their accommodation and food, so that the town acquired extensive forest holdings including the Rohozná glassworks and mines. The place never recovered from that.
Rohozná is currently one of the possible locations for a nuclear repository in the Czech Republic. A decision on this is to be made by 2025.
