history
Roßwald was founded in the middle of the 13th century in the course of the planned settlement of North Moravia by the Olomouc bishop Bruno von Schauenburg and settled with Germans. It belonged to the bishop's possessions and was first mentioned on November 6, 1255 a document with which Bishop Bruno "Rodolueswalt" his Steward Herbort of Fülme transferred as a fief. His descendants built a fortress around 1500, which they converted into a Renaissance castle from 1548–1565. In 1570 Roßwald came to the Sedlnitzky von Choltitz . Because of their participation in the class uprising in 1618 , they lost their property after the battle of the White Mountain . The next owner was the governor of Moravia, Count Maximilian von Dietrichstein . However, in 1630 he sold Roßwald to Freiherr Georg Maximilian von Hoditz, who was raised to the rank of imperial count in 1641. In 1676 Roßwald received the status of a market town. Under Albert Joseph von Hoditz , who took over the estate in 1741, the Renaissance castle was converted into a luxurious baroque residence and furnished with art objects. Because of its extensive gardens and precious furnishings, the palace was known as the “Silesian Versailles”. In the castle there was a theater and concert hall, in which among others Carl Ditters von Dittersdorf made music. Among the numerous visitors were Emperor Joseph II , the Prussian King Friedrich II and Voltaire .
After the First Silesian War in 1742, Roßwald remained in Bohemia, but was now on the border with Prussian Silesia . Due to the costs associated with the renovation and operation of the castle, the estate economy collapsed after 1770. Albert Joseph von Hoditz moved to Potsdam . His heavily indebted property came to the von Badenfeld family.
After the abolition of patrimonial the community Roßwald belonged to the district administration Jägerndorf . In 1898 it was connected to the Röwersdorf – Hotzenplotz narrow-gauge railway . After the transition to Czechoslovakia , which was founded in 1918 , Roßwald received the official place name Městys Rudoltice in 1921 . In 1930 there were 788 inhabitants in Roßwald, 774 of them were Germans.
After the Munich Agreement , Roßwald / Městys Rudoltice was added to the German Reich in 1938 and belonged to the Jägerndorf district until 1945 . After the Second World War Roßwald received the official place name Slezské Rudoltice . The German residents were expelled . As a result, the population decreased significantly and was only 363 in 1950. Some of the new settlers were repatriates from Volhynia .
In 1954 Slezské Rudoltice lost its status as Městys . At the end of 1960 the Okres Krnov was dissolved and Slezské Rudoltice was assigned to the Okres Bruntál.
