history

The first written mention of Valy was in 1398 as the seat of Jošt von Valy; Lepějovice, which can be traced back to 1167, is older. Emerged on the transition from the 14th to the 15th century, both in Valy as small in Lepějovice water resistant . The first owners of Valy, Jošt von Valy, and from 1405 his brother Tůma came from the Volféřov family. In 1485 Jindřich Dubánek von Dubany sold the Valy estate to Václav von Zásmuky on Lepějovice. In 1491 the Valy Fortress was described as desolate, and the village was also largely devastated - probably as a result of the Bohemian-Hungarian War. The subsequent owner of the estate was from 1505 Jiří Pánovec von Uřetín, he sold it in 1513 to the brothers Diviš and Kunát the Elder. J. from Dobřenice. The latter had the fortress rebuilt in 1549. In the middle of the 16th century a larger pond system was created in the shallow valley of the Struha, stretching from Valy to Lepějovice; the cascade of the four main ponds Valský rybník, Hluboký rybník, Páral and Lepějovský rybník was mainly fed by the Struha. In 1589, the first land register was created with the Registra purkrechtní statku valského ; it was run until the 1660s. During the Thirty Years' War, the area suffered from the passage of troops, billeting, requisitions, looting and pillage. During this time the Valy fortress fell into desolation and the villages of Lepějovice and Crkaň became extinct. After the end of the war, a small brewery was set up on the Meierhof and a hop garden was laid out behind the sheep farm. The beer was sold in the stately tavern, as was the brandy from the two distilleries.

The Dobrženský von Dobrženitz held the Valy estate until 1694, after which it was inherited by Albrecht Ladislav Kapoun von Svojkov. In 1703 he sold Valy to Romedius Johann Franz von Thun and Hohenstein , who united the estate with the Choltitz rule . The imperial counts of Thun and Hohenstein elevated the Choltitz rule to a family fideikommiss and held the property until the 20th century. A tannery was operated in the fortress until the end of the 18th century. In the Josephine cadastre of 1787, 22 objects are described for Valy. At the end of the 18th century, Valy became part of the tax municipality Veselí with judges and elected lords, to which the villages Klenovka and Štěpánov also belonged. In 1802 the Elbe weir was built.

In 1835 the village of Wally , also known as Walle or Waly , in the Chrudim district , consisted of 37 houses in which 282 people lived. The main source of income was agriculture. In the village there was a farm, a sheep farm, an inn and two mills. The parish was Choltitz. The construction of the Imperial and Royal Northern State Railway , completed in 1845, changed the village. A mighty railway embankment was raised between Wally and the Elbe meadows, which took the view of the Elbe. The manorial sheep farm, a fishing sloop and all the houses on the eastern edge of the village were demolished for the construction of the railway. In 1848 the lordship had a new road built from Choltitz via Wesely to Wally . Until the middle of the 19th century, Wesely remained subject to the Choltitz Fideikommissherrschaft.

After the abolition of patrimonial Valy formed from 1849 a district of the municipality Veselí in the judicial district of Přelauč . After the lost battle at Königgrätz , the Austrian army withdrew in the summer of 1866 via the Elbfurt near Valy in the direction of Moravia ; From 1868 the village belonged to the Pardubice district . Between 1881 and 1882, a second railway was laid on the Přelouč – Kalkpodol railway west of the village. The former Valy fortress burned down in 1901, and a residential house was later built on its foundation walls. Valy or Vale broke away from Veselí in 1902 and formed a separate municipality with Lepějovice. Since 1924 Valy has been used as the only Czech place name. During the Second World War, the town center was redesigned, and from 1939 to 1942 a new municipal office was built. Valy was electrified between 1942 and 1943. In 1949 the community was assigned to the Okres Přelouč. This was repealed in the course of the territorial reform of 1960, since then Valy has belonged to Okres Pardubice. The community has had a coat of arms and a banner since 1998; it was consecrated on the occasion of the 600th anniversary; the wolf's head comes from the coat of arms of the Knights of Valy, the stork from the coat of arms of Kunát from Dobřenice.
