history

The remains of a Slavic settlement found in the clay pit suggest that the village was founded in the 9th century at the end of the establishment of tribal settlements. Semitesicih was first mentioned in a document in 1141 in a list of goods drawn up by the Olomouc bishop Heinrich Zdik on the occasion of the relocation of the bishopric to the new Wenceslas Cathedral , in which two outbuildings are listed as the property of the church. In 1239 the place was called Semithes , 1275 as Semitesiz , 1508 as Samotyasek prope Dolan , from 1517 as Samotížky , Samotíšky or Zamotissek , from 1673 as Samotick , 1677 as Samotisko and from 1771 as Samotischka or Samotíšek . During the Hussite Wars , the village was affected by the siege of Olomouc by the Prague Hussites and in 1425 by the conquest of the Dolany Charterhouse. Since the second half of the 16th century the Freihof can be traced, which later also functioned as an inheritance court . In 1629, Jan Andrýsek, who had made his fortune as a wine merchant in Olomouc, kept his vows made years earlier in the pilgrimage church of St. Martin on the Lilienberg near Lultsch and had a Chapel of Our Lady built on the hill southeast of Samotick. After its construction was completed in 1633, Andrýsek bought the Samotek Hereditary Court from the Hradisko Monastery . During the Swedish occupation of Olomouc, the chapel on Svatá hora burned down in 1645 and the hereditary court was also devastated. Andrýsek then gave the Freihof back to the Premonstratensians in Hradisko and asked for their support to rebuild the burned-out chapel. The registers were kept in Jívová and Dolany from 1642 . For the construction of the new pilgrimage church on the Heiligberg, the residents of the village had to do labor from 1669. When house numbers were introduced in 1771, Samotick consisted of 32 properties. After the abolition of the Heiligberg priory, the pilgrimage church was elevated to a parish church in 1785, and Samotick also belonged to its district. At the same time a parish school was set up in Heiligberg. After the Meierhof Heiligberg had been parceled out in 1788, the new settlement of Mariendorf was built east of Samotick. Until the middle of the 19th century Samotk was one of the prebenders of the Olomouc cathedral chapter.

After the abolition of patrimonial formed Samotišky / Samotischek 1850 a municipality in the district administration Olomouc. At that time the place had 699 inhabitants. In 1856 a large fire destroyed 31 properties. During the German War, a cholera epidemic broke out in 1866 , in which 75 residents died. In 1899 a village school was set up in Samotišky. From 1921 the municipality belonged to the Okres Olomouc-venkov under the name Samotíšky . During the German occupation , the village was given the German name Einöd . The kindergarten was established in 1939. After the end of the Second World War, the German administrator of the court of inheritance (Edwin Anton Lachnit, who had leased the farm since 1926) was evicted and the estate was nationalized. In 1950 Samotíšky came to Okres Olomouc-okolí and since its abolition in 1961 the place belongs to Okres Olomouc. In 1974 Samotíšky was incorporated into Olomouc. The brick factory ceased operations in 1977. At the beginning of 1993 the place broke away from Olomouc and has since formed its own municipality under the name Samotišky .
