history

In the Great Zoo, which almost completely enclosed the rulers of Hirschberg , Weißwasser and Münchengrätz , a glassworks near Hühnerwasser can be found since the 18th century . It was first mentioned in 1727 in a description of the Weißwasser dominion. In 1774 Vincenz von Waldstein sold the glassworks with all the buildings belonging to it, the Hüttenmeisterwiese at the Wawrauschker Pond ( Vavrouškův rybník ), as well as a clearing between the Großer Dirnstig ( Držník ) and the street pond ( Strážovský rybník ) for 1,500 guilders to the Falkenauer Hüttenmeister, who at the same time granted the privilege of serving stately beer, wine and brandy, as well as special conditions for the purchase of wood from the Waldstein forests, for the continued operation of the glassworks. In addition, Kittel received meadows on the desert pond, the floodplain forest Dobischen ( V Doubči ) on the heather pond and a rocky area around the Eichelberg with the forest growing on it. Two important trade routes crossed at the Eichelberg; from the north the Alte Leipaer Strasse led from Niemes via Straßdorf to Hühnerwasser , to the south the Alte Melnikerstrasse branched off to the Bösigen and to the northwest the Alte Kummerstrasse to Leipa . Because of the convenient location, Kittel had a tavern and a few houses for charcoal burners and woodcutters as well as another small glassworks in Dobisch. In 1786 he signed the glassworks over to his son Johann Michael Kittel for 1620 guilders. He only received the permit to operate the glassworks until 1791, since the hut had gone out of operation in 1788 and the rulers were better able to sell the wood for an intended fortress construction in the event of Kummer than at the terms agreed with Kittel.

When Ernst von Waldstein-Wartenberg inherited his father's lordship in 1797, he had the Great Zoo closed. The forester's house in Straßdorf with an adjunct house was built as the administrative seat of the stately Straßdorf forest district. After the construction of the new Chaussee from Weißwasser via Hühnerwasser to Gabel between 1815 and 1817, the old roads leading through Straßdorf lost their importance. Because of the damage caused by the large game population, Ernst von Waldstein-Wartenberg left the forests of the Haider Revier (1400 ha), Kummerer Reviers (1443 ha) and Thamer Reviers (898 ha) as a zoo again in the years 1825 and 1826 cultivate 3,406 hectares. There was also a smaller zoo in the Hühnerwasser forest area, the Tannelgarten. In 1832 Christian von Waldstein-Wartenberg inherited the dominions.

In 1832, Straßdorf consisted of nine houses with 62 German-speaking residents. The vicarage was chicken water. Until the middle of the 19th century, the village remained subject to the allodial rule of Weiß- and Hühnerwasser.

After the abolition of patrimonial , from 1850 on , Straßdorf was part of the town of Hühnerwasser in the Bunzlauer Kreis and judicial district of Niemes . In addition to the actual village, there were also a number of layers belonging to Straßdorf: the forester's and Hegerhaus Pechofen, the Forsthaus Straßteich, the Hegerhaus Wabrauschker Mühle, the Hegerhaus Tannelgarten including a cone liner as well as a stately adjunct house and a Hegerhaus in Glashütte. In 1903, Straßdorf consisted of 14 houses in which 51 people lived.

Train of the Rečkov Forest Railway near Strassdorf

In 1914, the Graeflich Waldstein Forestry Office had the 26 km long, narrow-gauge Rečkov forest railway built, which ran from the Dreizipfel forest house via Straßdorf and Eierbrunn to the Velký Rečkov sawmill and paper mill. After the First World War the tourist development of the Hölzfeller settlement began. In 1922 a forest fire destroyed 410 hectares of forest.

In 1930 the district of Straßdorf consisted of nine houses in which 42 Germans and one Czech lived. His cadastre covered an area of ​​1747 hectares, which consisted almost entirely of forest and to which the Waldstein hunting lodge in Straßdorf, seven forest houses and a Pechsiederei belonged. For 1931, 38 residents and eleven houses were given.

After the Munich Agreement , it was incorporated into the German Reich in 1938; at first Straßdorf belonged to the district of Böhmisch Leipa and since May 1, 1939 to the district of Deutsch Gabel . After the end of the Second World War, Straßdorf came back to Czechoslovakia. In 1946 and 1947, most of the German-Bohemian residents were expelled. In 1948 the place was renamed Strážov and came back to Okres Česká Lípa . At the same time the area was evacuated because of the establishment of the Ralsko military training area . The forest railway stopped operating in 1950. Later Strážov was razed to the ground with the exception of the one-storey hunting lodge, the ruins of which are said to have existed until the beginning of the 1990s.

After the withdrawal of the Soviets, the desert became part of the Ralsko municipality on January 1, 1992 . At the place of Strážov there is now a large meadow with a group of oaks that used to stand along the village street of the small street village . The basements of the hunting lodge are also preserved.
