history
Turkovice was first mentioned in writing in 1257. The oldest record about the church is from 1348.
In 1556 Wilhelm Trčka von Lípa Turkovice sold together with Bukovina to the owner of the Choltitz estate , Georg von Gersdorff . In 1568 he ceded the Podhořany estate with the villages of Březinka, Turkovice, Bukovina, Hošťalovice and Rašovy to his brother Hendrich. Turkovice always remained submissive to Podhořany.
During the Thirty Years' War the parish of Turkovice became extinct, the church was a branch of the parish of Starkoč until 1717 and then the parish of Zbyslav . In 1720 a parish with a parish school was again established in Turkovice under the joint patronage of the landlord Peter Nikolaus Straka von Nedabylice and the Prague Archbishop Franz Ferdinand von Kuenburg ; Hošťalovice with the branch church St. Gallus, Březinka, Obicka ( Bílý Kámen ), Bukovina, Bumbalka, Holotín, Podhořany and Rašovy as well as parts of Litošice and Licomělice were included . The rectory was not finished until 1731, until then the pastor lived in Podhořany. In 1784 the parish previously belonging to the Archdiocese of Prague was assigned to the Bishopric of Königgrätz , the church patronage remained unaffected. In 1826 a new school house was built.
In 1840 Turkowitz consisted of 57 houses, in which 289 people, including 11 Helvetic and two Jewish families, lived. The parish church of Sts was under the alternate patronage of the rulership and the Archdiocese of Prague. Martin, the parish and the school. There was also a tavern in the village, with a single-shift windmill aside. Turkowitz was the parish for all localities of the Podhořan dominion as well as the villages Bumbalka, Sobolusk and Holotín belonging to other dominions and the Choltitz part of Licomělice.

With a state emergency grant, the Časlau district had the new district road Turkovice - Nový Dvůr - Březinka - Podhradí - Starý Dvůr built in 1905.
In 1949 Turkovice was assigned to the Okres Přelouč. This was lifted in the course of the territorial reform of 1960, since then the community has belonged to Okres Pardubice.
