history

Where a path leads along the Bronze Age urn field in Sirmitz, there were some quarries near the intersection with the Oberlohma-Altenteich road. In 1755 this place was called "Steinbruch" on a map, in 1767 it was called "Aufn Hayd-Häusl", in 1847 "Haihäuser" and since 1881 Hoierhäuser (High German: houses of hunters, i.e. forest workers ) or Hoihaus. The border between the communities Oberlohma and Sirmitz ran through the village. 18 house numbers belonged to the municipality of Oberlohma, 10 to the municipality of Sirmitz. The residents were mostly workers, artisans and employees. After the end of the Second World War in May 1945, the place was called Seníky. Some of the houses were renovated after 1989 after the opening of the border to the Upper Palatinate and are now inhabited.

The place has a train stop on the railway line that runs from Františkovy Lázně to and Bad Brambach in Saxony. Beyond this railway line is a bathing pond ("Ko (a) rnteich") on a leveled area in the forest area.
