history
Smilovice was created in the 15th century as part of the settlement of the Beskydy forests belonging to the Duchy of Teschen . The Smylovicz manor was first mentioned in writing in 1448. It was named after František Smyl, who brought Wallachian settlers from Romania into the country. In 1592 the estate was confiscated by the Teschen Chamber . In 1603 Duke Adam Wenceslas sold the village to Hannibal von Brno. His widow gave Smilovice back to Duchess Elisabeth Lukretia , who sold it to Andris Zientek in 1646. Until 1644, the Smilovice Manor also included the Paseken in the upper Ropičankatal, from which the village of Řeka arose. Smilovice was an agricultural village. One focus was the pasture economy, in addition, the logging and salas economy in the mountains played a role. Most of the inhabitants were Protestant and until 1781 met for secret services on the Godula. The barons of Bees on Hnojník belonged to the owners of Rakowetz .
After the abolition of patrimonial Smilowitz formed a political community in the district of Teschen from 1850 with the district Rakowetz . From 1920 the place belonged to the Český Těšín district. In 1938 Śmiłowice came to Poland as part of the Olsa region . From 1939 to 1945 Smilowitz belonged to the Teschen district . On May 2, 1945, the Red Army attacked the place occupied by German troops. The village was evacuated and taken the next day. Several houses in Rakowetz were damaged by the fighting. Smilovice returned to Czechoslovakia after the end of the war. After the dissolution of the Okres Český Těšín, the community was assigned to the Okres Frýdek-Místek in 1961. In 1980 Smilovice was incorporated into Hnojník , and since 1991 the village has existed again. There is a strong Polish minority living in Smilovice, coming from the Cieszyn Wallachians , to which 26% of the population belong (2001).
