history

The first documentary mention of a village Topolan took place in 1107, but there is no evidence that it is Topolany near Vyškov. The oldest written evidence of the village dates from 1349 as part of the ownership of the brothers Jarohněv, Ruprecht and Stach von Buchlovice. From 1375 the Pustiměř Monastery owned part of the village. In 1388 a parish was established in Topolany, to which the villages Křížanovice, Heroltice and Rybníček were assigned. In the 15th century, the secular part of Topolany belonged successively to the lords of Mělčany, Bařice and from 1447 the Zástřizl . In 1521 the monastery also acquired the share of the Lords of Zástřizl. In 1588 Pope Sixtus V abolished the Benedictine monastery and the monastery property was attached to the Wischau rulership belonging to the Olomouc bishopric . In 1592 the town of Vyškov bought the mill in Topolany. After the Thirty Years War the parish became extinct and from 1688 its administration was transferred to the pastor of Vyškov. In 1761 construction began on a new church with a cemetery. It was moved to another location because the church and chaplaincy were often flooded during the Haná floods. With the establishment of the diocese of Brno , the dean's office Wischau was assigned to it in 1777. After the old cemetery has not been buried since 1786, it was abolished in 1792 and transformed into a parish garden. In 1791 the village had 362 inhabitants. Because of the increasing floods in the first half of the 19th century, the Haná received a new river bed. In 1854 359 people lived in the community.

After the abolition of patrimonial Topolany formed from 1850 a municipality in the district administration Wischau . In 1859 the parish Topolany was renewed, in 1862 it was subordinated to the Archdiocese of Olomouc as part of the Wischau deanery. In 1880 the village had 469 inhabitants and in 1921 there were 460. In 1980 Topolany was incorporated into Hoštice-Heroltice and in 1986 after Vyškov . In 1990 the municipality of Topolany was re-established.
