history

Slatina emerged before the early 12th century when the Egerland was colonized and Christianized by German-speaking settlers and locators . In the 13th century the place was called Slatein in the tax lists of the Waldsassen Monastery and was inhabited by farmers who earned extra income by selling medicinal water from the springs of the surrounding moorland, fish, forest fruits, honey, firewood, woven and knitted goods . The residents of Slatein were taxpayers of the monastery and had to surrender their tithes, were obliged to provide other services, the robot, and were bound to the clod as serfs .

Fragmentary reports on excavations in the Eger basin allow the assumption that in Schlada and the neighboring towns in the catchment area of ​​the 20 kilometer long Schladabach, in the towns of Sirmitz, Lohma and Kropitz, a Slavic, pre-Christian healing center existed and was protected by a castle in Eger Schlada was a predecessor of the spa town of Franzensbad, which emerged at the end of the 19th century near the town of Schlada and the town of Eger.

In 1268, the Waldsassen monastery sold the tithes of the village of Schlada to the Teutonic Order in Eger , and in 1379 the orders of the Poor Clares and the Franciscans and citizens of the city acquired taxable property in Schlada. At the end of the 14th century, the imperial city of Eger came into the possession of the farms in Schlada and the tax revenue has since flowed to the city, which also had jurisdiction over Schlada. In the eight books of the Egerer Schöffengericht and in the Urgichtenbuch Schlada is mentioned with the crimes committed there and the persons involved.

The Eger claw tax book for the year 1392 contains the surnames of 14 taxpayers and the draft book of 1395 of 13 conscripted men from Schlada. They were the first established family names in the place. In the middle of the 15th century, Schlada was burned down three times by soldiers passing through.

After the construction of a bridge over the Schladabach in 1600, the mineral springs near Schlada, the Schletterer Säuerling, became more easily accessible and sought-after commodities. After the abolition of patrimonial Schlada formed a municipality in the judicial district of Eger or Eger district . In 1874 a school house was built and one teacher was employed full time.

When the spa town of Franzensbad was established north of Schlada at the end of the 19th century , the residents of the town also benefited from the economic upswing from this re-establishment. Since then, Schlada has been part of the pastoral care of the Roman Catholic parish Saint Niklas in Eger. After the Munich Agreement , the place was added to the German Empire and belonged to the district of Eger until 1945 . In 1939 there were 933 people in the community. In 1942 Schlada was incorporated into Eger. Schlada had eighty houses in 1945. After the end of the Second World War, the community came back to Czechoslovakia in 1945 . The German residents of Slatina were expelled and settled in the Upper Palatinate, in the rest of Bavaria and in Thuringia. In 1949 Slatina became part of Františkovy Lázně . In 2001 the village consisted of 78 houses in which 378 people lived.

Name origin

The place name Schlada is of Indo-European origin and means swampy land , a designation that was further developed in the subsequent languages ​​of West Slavic to slatina and Middle High German to slade, slate. It is one of the leading names of the Indo-European language family and its cultural area. Like Schladen an der Ocker and Schlammede near Unna, Schlada is the guiding name of the former Indo-European cultural area.
