Souš (German Tschausch , also Czaws, Suss, Czous, Sussie, Zusatz, Tzawsch ) was a village about two kilometers west of the city of Most .
history
Tschausch belonged to Johann von Werberg, a citizen of Brüx, in 1312. In the following years the property passed through several hands of the members of the small nobility until the lords of Duban bought it in the middle of the 15th century. In 1505 the town of Brüx bought Tschausch and two years later it was transferred to Johann von Weitmühl , the lord of the castle at the provincial watchdog . In 1595 the castle and the village were confiscated by Emperor Rudolf II and sold again to the town of Brüx. It remained in his property until the land reform in 1848.
In the middle of the 17th century, 14 farming families and 15 cottagers lived in the village. In 1846 there were now 247 inhabitants, the number of which rose rapidly after the opening of the Anna (1871), Karolina (1872), Beust (1876) Julius V (1902) and the Matylda underground mine (1918) pits. In 1880, 1,804 people lived in Tschausch, 1,207 of them Czech. The number rose to 4,326 inhabitants by 1921, 3,592 of them Czech.
The largest part of the place was liquidated because of the advancing mining during the 1960s, a small district was attached to the city of Most in 1971.
The church of St. Martin (1752) on the site of the burned down Gothic church also fell victim to mining. The paintings and the statue of St. Prokop were brought to Wteln . In 1991 the place had 383 inhabitants. In 2001 the village consisted of 158 houses, in which 436 people lived.
