history

Strašín was probably founded in the 13th century by the Witigones . The place name derives either from a person called Stráša or was named after a guard post ( stráž ) on the Passauer Steig . There are also attempts to derive strašné ( terrible ) and strašidelné ( scary ), which are based on the legend about an old book in the Žihobetz church, in which Strašeň locus horribilis is said to be written in Latin .

The first written mention of Strahen was in a document dated March 12, 1254, when the church was placed under the administration of the Johanniterkommende Strakonitz and the appointed pleban Nikolaus made the promise to preserve the property of the church entrusted to him. During this time, the Lords of Český Krumlov built a protective castle opposite the village on the Na výškách rocky spur. In 1274 Witiko II. Von Krumau sold the village of Strazen including two mills and land to a woman from Prague, Christina, and her son Nicholas. In 1279 the prior of the Strakonitzer Kommende bought Strazen including the accessories for 100 marks from Christina and a little later bought the forest above the village from Witiko II for 20 marks. Later the Strazen estate became part of the Raby castle lordship . In 1369 the church was first designated as a parish and pilgrimage church. From 1380 the village was called Strassin . During the Hussite Wars , the residents of Strassin became utraquist . The church on the Hůrka remained Catholic, but the Utraquists prevented the Marian pilgrimages and closed the church. Puta von Fels auf Raby had the pilgrimage church renewed in the Gothic style in 1443 and given a new Madonna figure. Later, Strassin and Raby Castle came to the Švihovský von Riesenberg family branch . In 1545, Půta Švihovský of Riesenberg's sons Jindřich and Břetislav pledged their shares in Strassin to Bernhard Kotz von Dobrz because of overindebtedness . A little later they were able to redeem the estate, but finally had to sell it to Christoph Kotz von Dobrz in 1547. The next owner of Strassin was Wenzel Kotz von Dobrz; he was inherited in 1609 by Ludmilla Kotz von Chudenitz, who united the Strassen estate with the Žihobec rule . She sold Žihobec with Strassyn in 1617 to Jaroslav Pinta Bukovanský of Bukovany. This stood on the side of the insurgents during the uprising of 1618.

The Žihobce parish became extinct after the Thirty Years' War and was assigned to the Strassyn parish as a subsidiary. After de Hoeff Huerta's death, Antonio Lopez de Gradina became the owner of the estate, then three other former imperial officers, all of whom lived outside of Bohemia, took turns as owners.
