In 1340 the estate belonged to Smil Bítovský von Lichtenburg as a pledge , who three years later allowed Margrave Karl to redeem the Ruchwan , Starč and Purnitz estates near Bohuš von Starč and contributed 500 groschen to it. The Ruchwan estate was later returned to the Margrave. In 1353 Ruchwan was named a town, confirmed by King Matthias Corvinus in 1486 . In 1369 the town was granted the right to brew beer, a separate jurisdiction, from Margrave Johann Heinrich , and was released from liability for seizures.
