history

The village is probably founded by the Lords of Drslavice. Vladike Ota von Biřkov, who came from a branch of this family, first used the Vřeskovice title on the occasion of the sale of the upper mill in Křenice to the Chotěšov monastery in 1339 .

The first written mention of the village Wrzieskouicz took place in 1352. The settlement Schönanger or Krásný Úpor was situated on a nearby hilltop. At the end of the 14th century the village was called Brzieskouicze . The lords of Vřeskovice held the estate until the middle of the 15th century. From 1455 the fortress Vřeskovice with the villages Vřeskovice, Mstice and Krásný Úpor belonged to the Raupowsky von Ruppau auf Roupov . The fortress lost its importance as a manor and had been in desolation since the 16th century. The heavily indebted Johann IV von Ruppau had to rule Ruppau with the castle and the town of Ruppau including the farm, the sheep farm and the brewery, the villages and farms Vřeskovice and Mstice, the desert festivals and the village of Biřkov and the village of Kbel in 1607 to the chief clerk of the Kingdom of Bohemia, Johann von Klenau auf Janovice and | Žinkovy , sell. This inherited the property in 1616 to his son Wilhelm von Klenau. In 1655, Hartmann Maximilian von Klenau, one of Wilhelm's four sons, inherited the rule of Ruppau with the castle, the town and the Ruppau farm, the fortresses and the Dolní Nezdice farm and the villages of Vřeskovice, Jíno, Kaliště, Mstice and Biřkov. He was followed in 1675 by his underage son Franz Hartmann, who sold the estate to Johann Georg Freiherr von der Hauben in 1704 . Vřeskovice became part of the Kronporitschen rule . In 1717 the imperial field marshal lieutenant fell from the hood in the battle of Belgrade . His daughter Franziska Augusta and her husband Maximilian Joseph Graf von Törring-Jettenbach-Raenkam brought the Kronporitschen rule up further. The increasing over-indebtedness forced her son Norbert von Törring-Jettenbach-Raenkam to publicly auction off the rule, from which she acquired Clemens Franz de Paula of Bavaria . Maximilian Joseph III. von Pfalz-Zweibrücken , to which the rule belonged since 1795, had to cede his possessions in Bohemia to Archduke Ferdinand of Salzburg in 1805 with the acceptance of the Bavarian royal dignity . In 1815, through a family contract of the House of Habsburg-Lorraine, the Bohemian lordships of Reichstadt , Politz , Ploschkowitz , Tachlowitz , Buschtiehrad , Swollinowes , Kronporitschen and Katzow , to which the Grand Duke of Tuscany was entitled , were united under the title of the Duchy of Reichstadt . Emperor Franz I of Austria signed this over to his grandson Napoleon Franz Bonaparte in 1818 , who then took on the title of Duke of Reichstadt . In 1824 the rule of Kronporitschen was transferred to Grand Duke Leopold of Tuscany . Until the middle of the 19th century, the village remained subservient to Kronporitschen.

After the abolition of patrimonial Vřeskovice t. Břeskovice / Brzeskowitz from 1850 with the district Mstice a municipality in the judicial district of Přestitz. From 1868 the community belonged to the Přestice district . After the collapse of the Austro-Hungarian monarchy and the founding of Czechoslovakia in 1918, the kuk fund property Kronporitschen belonging to the Austrian imperial family was confiscated by the Czechoslovak state. In 1906 a post office was opened in Vřeskovice, which existed until 1936. In 1920 the community had 524 inhabitants, in the 1921 census there were already 549. Since 1924 Vřeskovice has been used as a Czech place name. In 1930 587 people lived in the village. The road to Lhovice was built in 1932. The village pond on the village green was concreted over in 1938. In the course of the municipal reform, Vřeskovice was incorporated into Borovy in 1961 and assigned to the Okres Klatovy . In 1971, 366 people lived in the 105 houses in the village. Between 1976 and 1990 Vřeskovice and Mstice belonged as districts to Švihov . The school in Vřeskovice was closed in 1981.
