history
The town was founded in 1257 on an island in the March as Nový Veligrad by Ottokar II Přemysl . She received the market rights from Veligrad-Staré Město and Kunovice transferred.
At the beginning of the 14th century, the royal city was given the name Hradiště , which was expanded to include Uherské ( Hungarian ) in the 17th century . The city was besieged from 1469 to 1473 by Matthias Corvinus of Hungary in vain.
Until 1749 the privileged hunters of Stříbrnice exercised the office of executioner . In 1780 the fortress was abandoned.
In Old Austria, Hungarian Hradisch was the seat of the district administration for the district of the same name. Around 1900 there were 5,137 predominantly Czech residents, including 937 Germans and Jews.
