history

The area to the west of the Vydra river on the border to the area , which belongs to the Künischer Gebirge , was settled by colonists from the Palatinate and Bavaria at the end of the 16th century. First settlements arose on the Křemelná . The village of Stadln (Stodůlky) located there became the seat of one of the eight Künischen free courts . According to older literature, a glassworks, the Antiglhütte , had existed in the Vydra valley on the trade route from Rejštejn to the area since 1523 .

1710 began with the establishment of Brenntenberg, the later Sattelberg, the settlement of the forests to the right of the Křemelná. In 1725 Karl Richard Ritter von Schmidel bought the Stachy and Stadln courts from the von Kolowrat lords . Schmidel, who had bought properties all over Bohemia with borrowed money at this time, went bankrupt a year later. In 1726 he sold lots on the Křemelná to settlers who founded the place Großhaid (Velký Bor). In 1727 nine settlers acquired a 200 hectare forest area south of Sattelberg and set up a lumberjack settlement, which was given the name Rehberg because of the abundance of red deer . The villages Waid (Paště) and Hohenstegen (Vysoké Lávky) were also created in this way. In 1731 Eleonora von Mansfeld acquired the Lords of Stachy and Stadln at auction of Schmidel's property for only 19,500 guilders. She had numerous other settlements built. As a result, the tasks of the court in Stadln grew considerably. The old and sick judge Willibald Hofmann was no longer up to this task and after complaints about his conduct of office increased, he asked the countess's son, Heinrich Paul von Mansfeld, who had meanwhile assumed the rule, to appoint another judge for the new ones Settlements. Adam Joachimsthaler was the first judge of the new Stadlerner share court. From this the designation Stodůlský Podíl - I díl (Stadlerner part - 1st part) developed. Heinrich Paul von Mansfeld sold Stachy and Stadln in 1749 to the glassworks master Laurenz Gattermayer. In 1763 Joseph Graf Kinsky acquired the Gattermayer property. His heir Philipp Kinsky von Wchinitz and Tettau founded the Chinitz and Tettau settlements.

In 1788 a wooden chapel was built with the consent of Emperor Joseph II . In 1798 Joseph II zu Schwarzenberg bought the Stadln court together with the Stubenberg rulership . Between 1798 and 1800 he had the 16 km long Kaltenbrunn flood canal built for timber rafting , which was later called the Chinitz-Tettauer flood canal.

In 1804 the construction of today's church began in place of the chapel, which was consecrated in 1807 by Bishop Johann Prokop von Schaffgotsch . The economic hardship in the area at the beginning of the 19th century led to major emigrations to Bucovina , Galicia , the Banat, and North and South America. In 1818 a meteorological station was built in Rehberg, which operated until 1845. After patrimonial was replaced in 1848, the municipality of Stadlerner part, part 1 (Stodůlský Podíl - I díl), or Stadlern for short, was established. In 1864 this comprised the settlements Sattelberg, Rehberg, Thalhäuser, Unter-, Mittel- and Oberschlösselwald, Antigelhof, Maderhäuser, Kaltenbrunn, Pfilzer, Grünberg, Großhaid, Mühlspreng, Seeberg, Sonnberg, Gruberg, Formberg and Böhmischhütte am Hurkenberg with a total of 200 farmsteads , five mills, a hammer and board saw, which together had about 1,600 residents. In 1868 the area was hit by a strong wind break. In October 1870, the storm damage in the forests was even greater, so that a bark beetle plague broke out. In 1870 a post office was set up in Rehberg. In 1910 the community had 1734 inhabitants.

On March 20, 1934, the name of the municipality Stadler / Stodůlský Podíl - I díl was renamed Rehberg / Reberky. In 1937 the reservoir on the Sattelberg was built and the construction of the Vinzenzsäge hydropower plant began. After the Munich Agreement , the village was added to the German Reich and belonged to the Bergreichenstein district between 1939 and 1945 . In 1946 the German-speaking residents of Rehberg were expelled . Her property confiscated by Beneš Decree No. 108 and the local Catholic Church in Czechoslovakia expropriated . The place was named Srní and the mountainous area could only be repopulated to a small extent.

In 1948, wire barges were built in the woods along the border with Bavaria in order to prevent the increasing movement of refugees across the green border after the Communists came to power. The army declared the sparsely populated area west of Srní a restricted military area and established the Dobrá Voda military training area. Parts of the municipality of Srní were incorporated into the military area and the settlements were destroyed. The neighboring municipalities of Stodůlky (Stadln) and Velký Bor (Großhaid) were completely destroyed and a tank firing range was created on the site of the village of Stodůlky. After the Dobrá Voda military training area was closed in 1991, the municipality of Prášily was rebuilt on January 1, 1992 .

In October 2014, the local elections could not be held in Srní because no one had declared themselves ready to run for the local council after the previous mayor was no longer available for another term after two electoral terms due to reasons of age. An office administrator was appointed until the new election was ordered.
