history

In 1078 Margrave Otto I donated the area to the Hradisch Monastery . The village of Světlá was probably founded in 1250 by the Hradian abbot Robert. In 1321 the Premonstratensians leased Světlá along with other goods to the knights of Ptení. King Wladislaw Jagiello pledged the Knínice provost with the towns of Knínice and Svitávka and the villages of Světlá, Cetkovice , Šebetov , Uhřice , Kořenec , Úsobrno and Okrouhlá to his advisor Ladislav von Boskowitz in 1499 . This established a manorial estate in Knínice and added other villages to it. Later the rule came back to the Hradisch Monastery. In the course of the 16th century, Šebetov was expanded to become a new mansion and the order had a large castle built there as a residence. Between 1563 and 1597, a monastery courtyard was built in Světlá on the initiative of Abbot Kaspar von Litovel. This was redesigned in baroque style in 1721 under Abbot Benedictus Bönisch. After the abolition of the monastery in the course of the Josephine reforms, its goods fell to the religious fund in 1784. After Emperor Joseph II had allowed the practice of the Helvetian religion again in his tolerance patent in 1781 , Protestant families who had emigrated from Bohemia and Moravia after the battle of the White Mountain returned . In 1787 the monastery courtyard was parceled out and given to Helvetian settlers. A new settlement was established east of Světlá and was named Duldungsdorf . In 1825 Karl Graf Strachwitz bought the Šebetov estate. His son Moritz Graf Strachwitz inherited the property in 1837.

After the abolition of patrimonial Světlá formed with the district Duldungsdorf / Přívěsť from 1850 a community in the district administration Moravská Třebová . In 1855 the municipality was assigned to the district administration Jevíčko , which was repealed in 1868. Between 1860 and 1865 the Karl Octavius ​​estates belonged to Lippe-Weißenfeld . In 1865 the Counts of Strachwitz briefly became the owners of the Šebetov estates again. In the course of foreclosure in the same year, the Viennese factory owner Johann May bought the property, which he then sold to Moritz von Königswarter in 1877 . In 1887 the volunteer fire brigade for Světlá and Duldungsdorf was founded. In 1904 the community had 358 inhabitants. The wooden Dutch windmill built at the end of the 19th century northeast of Duldungsdorf on the Kopanina hill burned down on December 23, 1936. During the German occupation, Světlá was assigned to the Political District of Boskowitz between 1941 and 1945 . After the end of the war, the community was initially again part of the Okres Moravská Třebová and in 1949 again assigned to the Okres Boskovice. At the beginning of 1961 Světlá was incorporated into Šebetov and assigned to the Okres Blansko , at the same time Přívěsť lost the status of a district. The municipality of Světlá has existed again since 1992. Světlá has had a coat of arms and a banner since 1999.
