The first documentary mention of the village belonging to the Hohenstadt lordship was in 1358. Some of the town's goods belonged to the Benedictine covent Klösterle at that time . In the middle of the 15th century, the Tunkl von Brníčko acquired Svébohov together with the Hohenstadt rulership. Brníčko large areas of northern Moravia, including Hohenstadt . The Lords of Tunkl stood at the side of Georg von Podiebrad . During the Hungarian-Bohemian War, the Hohenstadt rule was therefore devastated by Hungarian troops. After the Thirty Years' War, Svébohov recorded 21 farms in the 1677 hoof register. There is evidence of a school since 1805. In the area around the village, iron ore was mined in the first half of the 19th century, which was smelted in the iron works in Zöptau . In 1834 792 people lived in Svébohov's 122 houses. During this time, a strong Reformed congregation also developed in the village .

The Catholic Church was consecrated in 1870. From 1887 to 1888 Anton Cyril Stojan was parish vicar of the Svébohov branch . In 1892 the Expositur was elevated to a Catholic parish. In 1900 the village consisted of 130 houses and had 767 inhabitants.

After the establishment of Czechoslovakia in December 1918, the Reformed Parish Svébohov became the first parish of the new Evangelical Church of the Bohemian Brethren in the whole country. Later the Evangelical Congregation moved its seat to Hrabová , where the charismatic vicar Rudolf Šedý worked. In 1930 Svébohov had 641 inhabitants, including a German. After the Munich Agreement , the village was added to the German Reich in 1938 and belonged to the Hohenstadt district until 1945 . In 1939 there were 656 people living in Schwilbogen.
