history

Numerous broken fragments prove that the area was settled during the Slavic castle period around the seventh century BC. Chr.

The village was first mentioned in 1465 as the property of the Vladiken Svítkovský von Škudly. Their seat was a feast that had stood on a raised place above the mill. The houses of the village were scattered south of the mill along the Bylanka. The most important owner of the Svítkov estate was Burjan Svítkovský; he was initially in the service of Vojtěch von Pernstein . Johann von Pernstein appointed him captain of the Pardubice rule in 1537 . After Jaroslav von Pernstein had sold the Pardubitz reign to King Ferdinand I in 1560 , Burjan Svítkovský was appointed as the supreme administrator of the manor. The Svítkov manor probably flowed into the Pardubice reign after Burjan Svítkovský's death. In the Pardubice land register from 1588, 15 properties are listed for Svítkov, including a mill and a tavern. There were two ponds in the village: the Spodní rybník below and the Vrchní rybník above the bar. King Rudolf II had the rule reorganized in the same year through a system of 24 Rychta ( Scholtiseien ); the Rychtář in Rosice exercised the lower jurisdiction for Svítkov.

In the course of Raabisation of the 18th century, northeast of Svítkov at a mineral spring in the Elbe between the former pond Přerovský rybník and Zelenobranská dubina the end - laid out the settlement Přerovsko - in the place of the extinct village Přerov. A wooden chapel of St. Trinity. Přerovsko was first mentioned in 1793 in connection with an inn and a bath house by the spring.

In 1835 the village of Switkow , located in the Chrudim district on the road to Choltitz , consisted of 39 houses in which 277 people lived. There was a mill in the village. Parish was Pardubice. Between 1842 and 1845 the Imperial and Royal Northern State Railway was laid north of the village ; east of Přerovsko the Pardubice train station was built. Until the middle of the 19th century, Switkow remained subordinate to the kk cameraman Pardubitz.

After the abolition of patrimonial Svitkov formed from 1849 with the district Přerovsko a municipality in the judicial district of Pardubice . The chapel in Přerovsko burned down in 1860 and a new stone building was built in its place. From 1868 the village belonged to the Pardubice district . In 1869 Svitkov had 412 inhabitants and consisted of 55 houses. Between 1869 and 1871, the Havlíčkův Brod – Rosice nad Labem railway was built , which touched Přerovsko to the east. For the settlement of Přerovsko, which is enclosed in the track fork and by the flood area of ​​the Elbe meander, there were no more development opportunities, it was incorporated into Pardubice in the 1870s and from this time also called Svatá Trojice . In 1889 David Fanto founded a mineral oil refinery in the Přerovsko district in an easily accessible location at the railway junction, which started production in 1890. The northern part of Zelenobranská dubina was cleared for the construction of the refinery. The development of Svítkov from a rural village to a suburban settlement of Pardubice is connected with the Fantovy závody . In 1900, 792 people lived in Svítkov, in 1910 there were 1851. The Elbe was regulated at the beginning of the 20th century. Increasingly, the community expanded beyond its borders to the north to the district of Přerovsko. The Habrman School, which was inaugurated at the beginning of the 1924/25 school year, was also built there. The area was flooded by the Elbe flood in June 1926, the Bylanka was backed up and overflowed its banks. In 1930 Svítkov consisted of 297 houses and had 2044 inhabitants. In 1941 the regulation of the Bylanka began. In the course of the creation of a "Groß-Pardubitz", Svítkov was incorporated into Pardubitz by decision of the Interior Ministry on September 21, 1943. After the end of the Second World War, the Ministry of the Interior ordered the continuation of the "Velké Pardubice" conglomerate created during the occupation in 1946 . In the course of the reorganization of the town of Pardubice, Svítkov and Přerovsko belonged to the Pardubice V district from 1949 onwards. On May 17, 1954, Svítkov and Přerovsko were spun off from the town of Pardubice and formed a municipality in the Okres Pardubice-okolí. The place name Přerovsko went out afterwards; In addition to the original settlement (today U svaté Trojice), the district Přerovsko included the industrial area Svítkov-průmyslový obvod, the settlement Zadní polabina and the northern part of Svítkov along the street Přerovská. Since 1960 Svítkov belongs to the Okres Pardubice again. On July 1, 1960 Popkovice was incorporated, on July 1, 1964, the new incorporation to Pardubice took place. The PARAMO football stadium was converted into a speedway track in 1964, to which the race for the ČSR Golden Helmet was transferred.
