According to the local chronicle, the village was first mentioned in 1251 in a letter from Jerome of Lomnitz to the Brno judge, in which the latter wrote over the tithe income from Sivice to settle a debt. However, the chronicler does not give a source. The first secure mention of Sibcz can be found in a document by Katharina von Deblíns, who founded the village in 1317 together with Velké Blažovice, Malé Blažovice and Ořechovi čky as well as the church patronage rights in Ořechov and Šitbořice to the Dominican convent founded by her late husband Anna of Lomnitz handed over at Brno . In 1318, John of Luxembourg confirmed the ownership of the villages of Sypcz and Blažovice, donated by the sisters Katharina and Geruša von Deblín, to the monastery . In 1338 the village was called villis Siebitz . The fortified court of Nikolaus von Siebitz ( Mikuláš ze Sivic ) was located in the place at that time , he fell in 1346 at the side of King John near Crécy . Due to its location on the trade route from Brno to Olomouc and the promotion of development by the monastery, Sivice grew into a large village. At the beginning of the 17th century the place consisted of 38 houses. In 1718 the village was called Siwytz . In the South Moravian peasant uprising of 1738, due to the non-compliance with a patent of Charles VI. When the gentlemen broke out through relief of labor, the Sivice subjects also took part and refused to do labor. Four leaders of the rebellion were summoned to Brno after its suppression and briefly imprisoned on the Spielberg . In the Theresian Cadastre of 1754 50 properties are shown for Sivice. Until the dissolution of the St. Anna monastery in the Königsgarten in Altbrünn in the course of the Josephine reforms on May 2, 1782, Sivice belonged to the monastery estates. After that, Sivice, together with the Blažovice estate, was subordinated to the Imperial and Royal Estate Administration. In 1790, 430 people lived in the 75 houses in the village. In 1824 Franz Xaver von Dietrichstein- Proskau bought the Blažovice estate with Sivice for 96,050 guilders. In 1830 Sivice had grown to 92 houses and had 478 inhabitants. In 1843, Count Dietrichstein jointly assigned the property to his three daughters Maria, Antonia and Theresia. After Antonia Countess Mitrovský von Mitrovice and Nemyšl died in 1847, Franz Xaver von Dietrichstein changed the disposition in 1850 and made it possible to divide the property. The owners of Blažovice, including the fiefs of Sokolnice and Tuřany, were the brothers František and Arnošt Mitrovský in return for payments to the co-heirs.
