history
In the 9th and 10th centuries the Slavic tribe of the Dúdlebi settled along the Moldau and Malsch. Based on the distribution of preserved grave mounds, the area of today's municipality was on the southern border of its settlement area.
The Ločenice hill was uninhabited until the 18th century and was part of the Ločenice meadows in the Český Krumlov region . After the Weleschin pastor Joanes Bernardius Riezenschopfer perceived an apparition of five stars over the hill in 1732, which he called for a revelation of St. John of Nepomuk held, he had a pilgrimage chapel built there in the same year. Riezenschopfer did not live to see the completion, the consecration took place on May 16, 1735 by his successor Theofil Ignác Hostounský. On November 27, 1737, Johann Friedrich Anton Vorteil, Imperial Count von Wartenberg auf Klein Umlowitz, bought the six estates in Ločenice from the Krumlov domain. The next owner was Josef Gundakar Graf Thürheim, who sold Ločenice to Franz Leopold von Buquoy on September 1, 1751 . This made the estate part of the Gratzen rule . A settlement consisting of 13 properties was built around the much-visited chapel, which was named Johannesberg after the pilgrimage site and was under the administration of Ločenice. The chaplain Vojtěch Metla initiated a collection in 1777 to expand the chapel into a church. With the support of the landlord Johann Nepomuk von Buquoy, a single-nave church with cloisters was built by 1782, which was completed in 1786 with the addition of a 37 m high tower. The complex was then expanded to include a school and the rectory until 1789. On the orders of Emperor Joseph II , the church was elevated to a local church with its own priest in 1786. The localist and the teacher were paid from the religion fund. The district of the new Johannesberg locality comprised the villages of Chlum, Ločenice, Sedlce, Mokrý Lom and Polžov with 4020 parishioners. In 1840, 508 Czechs lived in the 71 houses of Svatý Jan / Johannesberg . The Dominikal settlement Ulehle, consisting of six houses, belonged to the village . Until the middle of the 19th century, the village always remained subservient to Gratzen.
After the abolition of patrimonial formed Svatojanske Hory / Johannesberg a district of the municipality Ločenice / Lotschenitz in the district administration Budějovice / Budweis. In 1884 the land in the village was measured by a geometer. In the presence of Emperor Franz Joseph I , a large imperial maneuver with 50,000 men took place in the Maltschtal below Johannesberg in 1895, during which a hot air balloon was also used for the first time to transmit commands and guidance in the field for military purposes. In 1910, 75 cherry trees, robinia and chestnut trees were planted on the village square. On April 16, 1914, Svatý Jan / Johannesberg applied for the formation of its own municipality by mutual agreement with Ločenice, the latter assuring the cession of the Radištnej forest without compensation. The outbreak of World War I and the collapse of the monarchy delayed a decision. Outside the church planted in 1919, the Social Democrats, the Linden Libuše and Masaryk , the Sokol revealed on the same day the monument to the fallen of the First World War. On December 13, 1922, the Ministry of the Interior of Czechoslovakia, founded in 1918, approved the formation of the municipality of Svatý Jan and on April 25, 1923, the State Finance Directorate in Prague approved the formation of a separate cadastral district. Since 1924 the municipality has had the official name Svatý Jan nad Malší . In 1948 the community was added to the Okres Kaplice. At the beginning of 1961, Chlum nad Malší and Sedlce were incorporated (with Babka, Hrachové Hory, Svachov, Úlehle); at the same time the community was assigned to the Okres České Budějovice. In the 1970s, the deeply cut meander valley of the Maltsch, popular as an excursion destination , was flooded by the construction of a dam in Římov . Thus extinguished the monolayer Babka, Kolínův Mlyn and Kozákův Mlyn. In 1997 Svatý Jan nad Malší was the winner in the state competition Village of the Year and in 1998 in Echternach took third place among 24 participants at the European Village Renewal Award . When it took part again in the Village of the Year competition in 2002, the municipality won the Green Belt for landscape and environmental maintenance, first in Jihočeský kraj and then nationwide, and in 2003 won a silver medal in the village category of the Entente Florale Europe .
The international classic car competition S kopce do Kopce has been held annually in Svatý Jan nad Malší since 1995 .
