history
The first written mention of Sporicz took place in 1281, when Friedrich von Schönburg gave the village to the commander of the Teutonic Order in Komotau . After lengthy disputes with the Bohemian Crown, Wenceslaus IV took advantage of the order's weakness after the Battle of Tannenberg in 1410 and confiscated its property. In 1411 Wenceslaus expelled the order from the country. In 1418 the royal military leader Nicholas the Poor von Lobkowicz Sporitz received as a pledge for funds loaned to the Bohemian crown . In March 1421 the village was ravaged by the Hussites on their blood train against Komotau, and in the following year by the imperial rulers who moved from Eger via Kaaden to Brüx and devastated the country. The rule of Komotau was pledged by the Bohemian Chamber , to Benesch von Weitmühl since 1468 . In 1488 he acquired the rule of Komotau in a peculiar way. Benesch von Weitmühl and his son Johann had the church redesigned. The brothers Johann, Ladislaus, Christoph and Sebastian von Weitmühl granted the residents of Sporitz, Komotau, Oberdorf, Michanitz and Tschernowitz the right of revocation .
In 1560 the Lords of Weitmühl sold the property to Archduke Ferdinand II. In 1571 he sold the rule to Bohuslav Felix von Lobkowitz and Hassenstein . In 1579 he also acquired the Rothenhaus rule with the town of Jirkov and united both dominions. In 1583 his son Bohuslav Joachim inherited the rule of Komotau. Witch trials took place during his reign. Over time, the village was called Sparitz , Schporicz , Sparicz , Sporitz , Sparycz , Sporycz and Sporžicz . In 1588 Bohuslav Joachim exchanged rule with Georg Popel von Lobkowicz for Jungbunzlau and Kosmanos . The fanatical Catholic Georg Popel began to recatholicize his subjects and brought the Jesuits to Chomutov in 1589 to carry it out . After Georg Popel accused Emperor Rudolf II of breaking his word in the state parliament in 1593 , he fell out of favor and his goods were confiscated the following year. In 1605 the Bohemian Chamber divided the great rule into four parts. Together with Katharinaberg , Rothenhaus, Görkau , Neosablitz , Eidlitz and Platten , Sporitz was sold to Adam Herzan von Harras in 1606 . In 1619 his son Jan († 1631) inherited the Rothenhaus rule. During the Thirty Years War the village was ravaged and plundered by various troops. After the Swedes occupied the area in 1639, Queen Christina gave the rule to Major General of the Cavalry Axel Lillie von Leffstadt in the confidence of victory . In 1646 the rightful heir Jan Adam Herzan von Harras took over the rule. He was raised to the rank of imperial count in 1660.
In 1681 Ferdinand Maximilian Herzan inherited the property, which he left to his brother Ernst Karl († 1697) in 1696. The next owner was Sigismund Wilhelm Herzan, another brother of the deceased. In 1683, most of the population died in a leaf epidemic. A plague column was erected in 1690 to commemorate this. In 1695 a school was built. In 1707 Johann Adam I. Andreas von Liechtenstein acquired the rule. At that time Sporitz consisted of 65 houses. Other owners of the estate were Maria Dominika Magdalena von Liechtenstein, her widower Heinrich Josef von Auersperg from 1724 and his son Johann Adam in 1766 . In 1771 Johann Alexander von Rottenhan bought the manor for one million guilders. He handed it over to his son Heinrich Franz in 1777 . In 1809 Marie Gabrielle von Rottenhan, the wife of Georg Franz August von Buquoy, inherited the paternal property. In the same year Sporitz was ravaged by Westphalian troops during the Napoleonic Wars, and in 1813 Austrians, Russians and Prussians plundered the area. Until the middle of the 19th century, Sporitz remained subordinate to the Rothenhaus rulership, and there was a manorial farm in the village.
After the abolition of patrimonial Sporitz / Spořice formed from 1850 a political municipality in the judicial district Komotau or district Komotau . In 1862 cholera broke out. At the end of the 1860s, a brown coal deposit was discovered west of Sporitz and a kaolin deposit below the place. Thereupon the mining started in the previously agricultural area. At that time, the Komotau Central Station was built north of the village in the corridors of the municipality of Sporitz. The Komotau-Dux-Ossegg railway was opened in 1870, followed by the route to Eger and the Buschtěhrad railway to Prague , Reitzenhain and Brunnersdorf a little later .
A three-class school had existed since 1877. The place was German-speaking, at the end of the 19th century a Czech minority lived in Sporitz, to which 3% of the population belonged. A new school building was inaugurated in 1890. In 1919 a Czech minority school opened. In 1921 nine percent of the population were Czech. The Anna and Ludwig mines were shut down as a result of the global economic crisis . In 1930 there were 2,748 people living in Sporitz. After the Munich Agreement , the community was added to the German Reich in 1938 and belonged to the Komotau district until 1945 . In 1939 Sporitz had 2607 inhabitants. In 1941 a prisoner of war camp was established in which French, English and Greeks were held. In 1943 the community was incorporated into the city of Chomutov. On April 17 and 19, 32 houses were destroyed and 22 heavily damaged in Allied bombing raids on the Poldi hut Komotau in Sporitz. 107 people died in the attacks. On May 5, 1945, a train of inmates from German concentration camps came through Sporitz on their way to Theresienstadt . The prisoners were housed in barns. On May 9, 1945, the Red Army took the place. After the Second World War, the place came back to Czechoslovakia and the German residents were expelled . The incorporation to Chomutov was canceled again in 1945.
Between 1956 and 1969 Černovice was a district of Spořice. In 1983 the municipality of Krbice became extinct due to lignite mining; their corridors including the former districts Nasí and Račice were closed to Spořice.
The Nové Spořice settlement, on the other hand, belongs to the town of Chomutov.
