history
Archaeological finds between Správčice and Kydlinov and between Věkoše and Pouchov show that the area was inhabited at an early age. The most important find was a stone ax.
The first written record was made in 1225, when King I. Ottokar Premysl of Hradec Kralove in the course of their elevation to King City , the village Vesce , which is considered today Věkoše, gave. The first proven owner of the village was the monastery and hospital of St. Antonius in Königgrätz. It then belonged to the municipality of Königgrätz and then to Nevinius de Vicus from the Mauthner suburb. The place name is derived from the old Czech name Wiekoss . In 1377 the place was called Vicus in a Latin script . In that year Anna Bydžovská assigned the Vicus farm to the Antonius Monastery, which held it until 1503. The following owners of the farm included u. a. from 1547 Lord Dohalský from Dohalice and at the end of the 16th century Adam Konecchlumský from Konecchlumí. During the Thirty Years' War the farm was burned down by the troops of the Swedish General Torstensson . In 1650 the municipality had the farm rebuilt.
In the course of the raabization , the Königgrätz rulership emphyteutized the court in 1781 and founded the village of Wiekosch . On January 24, 1786, the land division contract between the rulers and the settlers and the ransom was signed by the robot . In 1789 there were 27 houses in the village. In 1791 the warehouse was demolished and the proceeds from the sale as building material were used to build the St. Pauli Church in Pauchow .
In 1836 the village of Wiekosch or Wěkoš in the Königgrätzer district consisted of 31 houses with 181 inhabitants. The parish was Pauchow. In 1843, 196 people lived in the 33 houses of Wiekosch, including the Sprawtschitz settlement, which consisted of two courtyards. Until the middle of the 19th century the village remained subordinate to the Imperial and Royal Königgrätz.
After the abolition of patrimonial Věkoš formed from 1849 with the district Správčice a municipality in the judicial district of Königgrätz . In 1850 the mayors of Věkoš and other villages asked unsuccessfully to remain under Königgrätz administration, the first municipal council election took place in 1851. After the lost battle of Königgrätz , all residents had to leave the village on July 3, 1866 when the Austrian army withdrew across the Elbe and were housed in Librantice until July 11 . After their return they erected a cross in thanks for sparing the village from war. From 1868 the community belonged to the Königgrätz district . In 1872 the Königgrätz – Třebechovice railway line was built on the southern corridor . The volunteer fire brigade was founded in 1884. In 1907, Věkoš received electrical lighting and its own power station with a diesel engine provided electricity. Because of the overcrowding of the schools in Pouchov was 1909 in VEKOS a school built in the same year also opened a post office. In 1910, work began on regulating the Elbe by the company Kress & Bernard, Prague. In the years 1911–1912 the new road to Plácky including the Kameňák bridge was built . On April 4, 1914, the municipal council decided to rename the municipality in Věkoše . After Věkoše and Pouchov had grown together to form a closed building area since the beginning of the 20th century, the old district boundaries between the two municipalities proved to be unfavorable; the entire new residential area east of the village center of Věkoše up to the Pouchov cemeteries belonged to Pouchov. In 1920, therefore, residents of this area applied for annexation to Věkoše. An exchange of territory offered by the municipality of Pouchov for the Věkošer corridors south of the railway line was not acceptable for the municipality of Věkoše. Finally, an agreement was reached on the assignment of an area of almost 20 hectares to the municipality of Věkoše, which also took over a proportion of the Pouchov municipality debt of 5000 crowns. In the 1921 census, Věkoše had 588 inhabitants and consisted of 133 houses. In the same year, the first negotiations began because of an incorporation to create a "Groß Königgrätz"; with effect from September 3, 1923 Věkoše became the district of Hradec Králové.
Between 1927 and 1929 the construction of the Hradec Králové airport, which served both as a military and civil airfield, took place. In 1929 a bus line was added via Pouchov and Věkoše. At the 1930 census there were 645 people in Věkoše and 89 people in Správčice, of whom 721 were Czechs, 10 Germans, 2 Ruthenians and one Russian. 446 inhabitants were Catholic, 152 Hussite, 32 Bohemian brothers, two Orthodox, one Greek Catholic and 96 non-denominational. The Hradec Králové zastávka railway station was created in 1936 on the boundary with Pouchov, primarily for the airport employees . As part of the territorial reform, Věkoše was united with Pouchov on April 1, 1948 to form a district Pouchov a Věkoše . In the 1950s, the Piletický potok, the course of which formed the boundary between Věkoše and Hradec Králové, was relocated to the north in the course of the construction of the Gumokov plant. On May 17, 1954, the district Pouchov a Věkoše was separated from the city of Hradec Králové to Okres Hradec Králové-okolí, as well as the division into the communities Věkoše and Pouchov. In the August 1954 census, Věkoše had 850 inhabitants. In 1960 Věkoše, Správčice, Pouchov and Piletice were combined into one municipality with its seat in Pouchov. On November 26, 1971, it was again incorporated into the city of Hradec Králové. The primary school closed in 1974. On March 3, 1991 the place had 2748 inhabitants; in the 2001 census there were 2651 people in the 389 houses in Věkoše.
