history

On the saddle north of Krombach , over which the Leipaer Straße led to Zittau , entrenchments were built during the Thirty Years' War when the Swedish army marched into Bohemia. At the beginning of the 18th century was built on emphyteutisierten of the Grange Krombach at the hills reasons the settlement Schanze village . At the beginning of the War of the Bavarian Succession , the fortifications were restored and expanded by the Austrian army in 1778. At the end of the 18th century, Schanzendorf even had more inhabitants than Krombach. In 1813 the Napoleonic Army used the old entrenchments and ramparts when they marched into Bohemia.

In 1832 Schanzendorf , which was also called the Schanze , consisted of 145 houses with 833 German-speaking residents. The parish and school location was Krombach. The main source of income were spinning and contract weaving. Schanzendorf remained subject to the allodial rule of Reichstadt until the middle of the 19th century .

After the abolition of patrimonial Schanzendorf formed from 1850 a municipality in the Bunzlauer Kreis and judicial district of Zwickau. The poor economic conditions in the weaving village led to a strong emigration. In 1852 Schanzendorf was incorporated into Krombach. From 1868 Schanzendorf belonged to the Gabel district . The tourist development of the Zittau and Lusatian Mountains, which began in the second half of the 19th century, led to an upswing in the town. Immediately on the border with Saxony, accommodation and pub establishments emerged that competed successfully with the Saxon inns. The Hotel Edelstein opened on the road to Jonsdorf, the Hotel Josefshöhe near Hain and an excursion restaurant with a viewing tower on the Johannisstein, which was later expanded to become the Berghotel Johannissteinbaude. In particular on the Johannisstein and on the Hain, Bohemian and Saxon buildings lay close together and formed a closed development through which the state border ran. After the establishment of Czechoslovakia , the Czech name was 1924 Valy introduced.

The outbreak of the Sudeten crisis led to restrictions in free border traffic to Saxony at the beginning of 1937. On the road from Schanzendorf to Josefshöhe with the border buildings, a barrier was set up at the “Zur Eiche” inn, as well as at the chapel on Leipaer Strasse leading to Stern between Johannisstein and Jonsberg. Cross-border traffic was restricted to the times from 8 a.m. to 12 p.m. and from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. After the Munich Agreement , it was incorporated into the German Reich in 1938; until 1945 Schanzendorf belonged to the district of Deutsch Gabel . After the end of the Second World War, Valy came back to Czechoslovakia. In 1946 and 1947, most of the German-Bohemian residents were expelled. The border crossings to Saxony were closed, and after the outbreak of the Cold War the border to the socialist "brother country" GDR was even temporarily beaten with barbed wire. This also meant the end of gastronomy on the border, the buildings fell into disrepair. The Chapel of the Visitation of Mary at the northeastern exit of the village and all the abandoned houses, including the former Hotel Edelstein and the inns "Zur Deutsche Eiche" and "Zur Goldenen Krone", were blown up. In the course of the abolition of the Okres Německé Jablonné, Valy was assigned to the Okres Nový Bor in 1948, and since 1960 the village has belonged to the Okres Česká Lípa . After negotiations between the GDR and ČSSR, the Czechoslovak side left the former mountain hotel Johannisstein to the "Youth of the GDR" on January 1, 1959 for use as a youth hostel "Julius Fučík". The house had guests again by the Prague spring and makeshift repairs were carried out. When the borders with Czechoslovakia were closed again in 1968, the youth hostel was cleared again. The Chapel of the Visitation of the Virgin Mary in the center of the village and the “Zur Deutschen Eiche” inn were also demolished. From 1981 to 1990 Valy was incorporated into Mařenice . In 1995 border crossings were opened for hikers between Valy and Hain or Jonsdorf. In 2011 the border crossing to Jonsdorf was also opened to cars.

In 1991 Valy had 32 inhabitants. In 2001 the village consisted of 89 houses in which 24 people lived. In total, the place consists of 107 houses, most of which are not permanently inhabited.
