Vémyslice was first mentioned in a document in 1234 when King Wenceslaus I and his brother, Margrave Přemysl , gave the village, including the parish patronage, to the Cistercian abbey of Porta Coeli . A smaller proportion, however, was held by lower nobles for a long time, whose seat was probably Ledvice Castle . In 1298 a Wenzel von Weimislitz can be traced and in 1350 a Peter von Weimislitz. Ludwig von Weimislitz left in 1359 his property in Weimislitz and Nemčić except Wittums his wife Elizabeth the Czesniek of Leipa on Castle Krumlov .

In 1547, Abbess Barbara Konická von Schwabenitz freed the village from seizure liability and most of the labor . 1556 the abbess at King procured Ferdinand I. collecting Vémyslice to town and privileges for two eight-day fairs with Freiung , a weekly market, own coat of arms and seal with green wax. Abbess Anna Kutinská von Kutna confirmed the town's previous privileges in 1599, as well as the ownership of the Holauskowsky free house bought by the community and its use as a brewery and tavern; In addition, she freed the community from the official wine bar, left her the free administration of orphan's funds, the salt trade and fishing in the Rokytná ; it also banned the sale of land to nobles.

On November 26, 1750, the Porta Coeli Abbey sold the Weimislitz estate with its farm and sheep farm - but without the parish patronage - for 12,000 guilders and twelve ducats of key money to Emanuel von Liechtenstein on Lundenburg . The following year he took over the minority of the House of Liechtenstein - the Lordship of Krummau - from his brother Prince Josef Wenzel and united the Weimislitz estate with Krummau. After the abolition of the Porta Coeli monastery, Karl Borromäus von Liechtenstein also acquired parish patronage in Weimislitz in 1782.

In 1835 the market in Weimislitz or Wegmislice in the Znojmo district consisted of 143 houses in which 548 people lived. The parish and church of the Birth of the Virgin Mary , which were subordinate to the Hosterlitz deanery, were under lordly patronage . There was also a school and a farmyard in the village , which was considered to be the best-built in the entire estate. Three annual markets were held in Weimislitz .
