history

Poreche was founded by the Rosentaler and was first mentioned in a document in 1239, when Budislav von Rožmitál sold the place to the Kladruby monastery . In the 14th century the village came to the Schwanbergs and in 1360 Bohuslav von Schwanberg was named as the owner. After many changes of ownership, the place passed to Friedrich von Dohna on Vlčtejn , who sold it to Jan Roupovský von Roupov in 1506. Poříčí was a small town at that time and the fortress was the seat of a manor. In 1587 Christoph d. Ä. von Roupov his property Poříčí to the owner of Šťáhlavy , Karel Kokořovec von Kokořov. The castle was built in 1617.

During the Thirty Years War, General Bucquoy's troops moved into the city in 1620 . After billeting for five days, Bucquoy had Poříčí set on fire when he left. The completely burned place was given the nickname Spalene Poržiczy or Brenntes Poržicž , which became the place name in 1788. As a result of the destruction, the city, which had previously been given liberties, lost its self-government and became subject to the rule. To rebuild the desolate place, Jews were given the right to settle in 1623. In 1670 the synagogue and the Jewish cemetery were built , in 1680 the building of the Judengasse began and a strong Jewish community was formed. The residents lived from handicrafts and there were several mills and a hammer in operation. In 1715 the Counts Vratislav z Mitrovic sold the rule to Countess Anna Polyxena Clary-Aldringen , née Des Fours .

In 1749 the Prague cathedral chapter acquired the manorial power from Anna Polyxena. In 1756, during the Seven Years' War, the Prague Cathedral Treasure from St. Vitus Cathedral was temporarily hidden in the castle . The parish was elevated to a deanery in 1792 . In 1820 the third patriotic reading society in Bohemia and Moravia was established in Spálené Poříčí. In 1825 a Jewish hospital for migrating Jews was established. In 1865 the Jewish entrepreneur Eckstein founded his match factory , but it did not last long. Because of its location away from the railway connections, hardly any noteworthy companies settled down. In 1927 there were 1700 people living in the city, and it was all Czech.

Since the 19th century the Jewish community lost many members and at the time of the German occupation it comprised only ten people. After the end of World War II, it was wiped out because the two survivors had not stayed in Czechoslovakia. In 1946, the rococo synagogue built in the 18th century was demolished.

The city center has been a protected monument since 1992.
