history

The first written mention of the village of Vargosci was made in 1141 in a list of goods by Bishop Heinrich Zdik as property of the Olomouc chapter. Hermanstad , first mentioned in 1275, was probably near Varhošť, but this village was deserted again as early as 1394. In 1379 the place was called Warhoszcze . From 1380 Warhosscz became an episcopal fief. One of the most important feudal men was the founder of the Velká Bystřice estate , Wenceslaus von Doloplas. From 1490 the place was referred to as Varhošť or Varhošt and from 1492 as Warhosscz . Between 1521 and 1563 Warhosst was mentioned as a market town. During the Thirty Years' War the place became deserted and lost its privileges. The repopulation was probably done by Germans, in 1677 the village was first given the German name Haslichtl . The registers were kept in Habicht since 1712 . The German place name Haslicht has been used since 1718 . In 1835, 422 people lived in the 58 houses in the village. Until the middle of the 19th century Haslicht was always subject to the episcopal manor Velká Bystřice and was the seat of its forest administration.

After the abolition of patrimonial formed Haslicht / Varhošť with Einödmühlen tamped ground / Štomparňa , Black Mill / Černý mlýn and Flay mill from 1850, a municipality in the district administration and the judicial district Olomouc . The Schwarzmühle was the first mill on the Oder river . In 1880 the place had grown to 60 houses and had 430 German-speaking residents. The schoolhouse was inaugurated in 1889, and two-class lessons began eleven years later after its expansion. The volunteer fire brigade was formed in 1890. In 1900, 382 Germans lived in Haslicht's 68 houses . At that time, 1344 ha of agricultural land belonged to the district.

After the establishment of Czechoslovakia, Czechs moved in. In the 1921 census, the village consisted of 65 houses and had 323 German, eight Czech and one stateless residents. In 1930, 339 Germans and ten Czechs lived in the 68 houses. After the Munich Agreement , the municipality was added to the German Reich in 1938, until 1945 it belonged to the Bärn district and the judicial district of the city ​​of Liebau . In 1939 Haslicht had 360 inhabitants. After the end of the Second World War, Varhošť came back to Czechoslovakia and was reassigned to the district and judicial district of Olomouc. The German population was expelled and the place was partially repopulated with Czechs. As early as 1947, however, the evacuation of the village began in the course of the establishment of the Libavá military training area . The Štomparňa was destroyed in 1948 as a target by bombers of the Czechoslovak army during an exercise. Later the village of Varhošť was razed to the ground. The area covered 1375 ha. Varhošť is located within the absolutely restricted area and is only accessible annually on May 1st during the special opening of the military training area as part of the “Bílý kámen” cycle tourism campaign.
