history
Gut Schloppenhof was built in the 14th century. In 1629 the mayor of Cheb , Adam Schmidel von Seeberg, bought the estate. The Schmidel von Seeberg patrician family on Schloppenhof and Scheibenreuth held the estate until 1703. The following owners were the Martiniz, Schönstädten and Werner families. In the second half of the 18th century, the mayor of Cheb, Werner, sold the western half of the Wildenhof estate, which is connected to Schloppenhof, as Dominikalgut to the farmer Haberer. Until the beginning of the 19th century Schloppenhof remained an insignificant rural settlement. After the manufacturer Bachmayer had built a spinning factory with 40 spinning machines opposite the village on the left bank of the Wondreb, the place expanded to the other bank of the river. In 1837 Johann Wilhelm Diehl, Gottlieb Bayer u. Co. the cotton mill.
After the abolition of patrimonial Schlopenhof formed from 1850 a district of the municipality Gehaag in the district and judicial district of Eger . The city of Eger operated a basalt quarry on the U Lomu . The parish was Wies . In 1863, the Bayerische Ostbahnen AG began building the Waldsassen – Eger railway , which led across the fields behind the spinning mill. Rail traffic was started in 1865, but trains ran between the two cities without stopping. Emil Schmidt & Co.'s Vigogne spinning mill became the largest employer in the rural region south of Eger in the second half of the 19th century. There was also a brewery, a mill, a basalt plant and a slaughterhouse in the village. In 1893, the Schloppenhof train station was established east of Schönlind . On March 3, 1898, a branch school for the working class children of Emil Schmidt & Co. started teaching in Schloppenhof. At the beginning of the 20th century, a hydroelectric power station with two turbines was set up in the mill near Schönlind; it started operations in 1907 and supplied five villages in Bohemia, including Schloppenhof, and four in Bavaria with electricity. In 1902 a cemetery for the residents of Schönlind, Wies and Schloppenhof was laid out in Schönlind. In 1930 Schloppenhof had around 250 German-speaking residents. From 1932 the factory school in Schloppenhof was continued as a one-class private school, for the tuition of which a school fee was levied. After the Munich Agreement , the village was added to the German Reich in 1938 and belonged to the district of Eger until 1945 . In 1939, Erste Bayerische Basaltstein AG acquired the Schloppenhof gravel works in Steinmühle and at the same time leased the quarry northeast of the town. Lessons in the private company school were held until the school year 1944/1945. After the end of World War II , Schloppenhof came back to Czechoslovakia and the German-speaking residents were expelled. Rail traffic to Waldsassen was stopped in May 1945. In 1946 a Czech primary school started teaching in the former company school. In 1946 the place was given the Czech name Slapany . After the Communists came to power in 1949, the road connection to Mammersreuth and Egerteich was destroyed by the demolition of the bridge over the Wondreb and border fortifications were built. In 1951 a gang of border guards was stationed in Slapany . The village of Krásná Lípa was devastated until 1957. The school closed in 1967. In the same year the rail traffic between Cheb and Slapany was stopped, later the station building was demolished. Slapany was incorporated into Cheb in 1976 together with Háje. Until 1990 Slapany was on the edge of the Iron Curtain , which prevented any economic development for over 40 years. After the Velvet Revolution, a settlement called Krásná Lípa was built at the former Slapany railway station . A cycle path to Hundsbach was laid out on the overgrown railway line.
