history
The first written mention of Solany comes from the year 1300. At that time, the place Břetislav von Solany belonged to the family of Kaplirz zu Sulewicz . The place was until 1499 the seat of the branch line established by Břetislav. After the death of Václav Solský zu Sulewicz, Děpold von Lobkowicz acquired the place. In 1594 Solan belonged to the confiscated property of Jiří von Lobkowicz. Rudolf II lent the place to the Bilin line of Lobkowicz, who incorporated it into the Libochowitz rule .
The existence of a church in Solan has been documented since 1372. In 1423 St. Martin's Church became utraquist and remained so until the Thirty Years War. The Jesuits attached the church to the parish in Libochwitz in 1629. There is evidence of a Jewish family in the village since 1760. Based on the house numbers introduced at that time, there was a house in Solan that had a Roman number as the house number, as had to be carried by houses owned by Jews according to an order of the imperial court chancellery. When family names were introduced for Jews under the reign of Maria Theresa , the Jewish family called themselves Nalos , starting from the right after the place name in the usual Hebrew reading direction.
In 1766 the Gothic church was converted into a baroque building with pseudo-Gothic elements and in 1787 it became a branch church of St. Wenceslas in Trziblitz.
The inhabitants lived from agriculture, pond and forestry, but especially from fruit growing. The fruit growers achieved a very special success with the refinement of the Solanka pear variety , whose juicy fruits with a lovely taste made the village known abroad in the middle of the 19th century and were particularly popular in the German countries and the Netherlands.
On December 12, 1898, the inauguration of the railway from Brüx to Lobositz took place , the next station of which was less than a kilometer away at Trziblitz . 1900 the place had 422, in 1945 412 inhabitants and 1982 there were only 188.
