history

The village was probably founded in the first half of the 16th century and named after a locator Werner . The first written mention was made in 1541 under the name Wernirzowitzcze . Other historical forms of the name are Wermirzowicze (1553) and Wernerßdorf (1654). In the period after the Thirty Years War , the German place name prevailed. In 1790 the place consisting of 17 houses was called Alt-Wernsdorf .

In 1833 the village of Wernsdorf or Wernersdorf , located in the Königgrätzer Kreis , consisted of 22 houses in which 120 German-speaking people lived. There was a school in the village. The residents lived from pasture farming and hand weaving. The parish was Schatzlar . Until the middle of the 19th century the village remained subject to the Trautenau rulership .

After the abolition of patrimonial Wernsdorf formed from 1849 a district of the municipality of Brettgrund in the judicial district of Schatzlar . In 1868 the village was assigned to the Trautenau district . In 1900 65 people lived in the 19 houses in Wernsdorf . In 1911 there were 20 houses in Wernsdorf , and Siegmund Reicho's inn with a general store was in house number 6. In 1920 Vernířovice was introduced as a Czech place name. In 1929 there were 67 inhabitants in the 15 houses of the village. A steep road led from Brettgrund to Wernsdorf . Between 1937 and 1938 light fortifications of the Czechoslovak Wall were built between the Reissenhöhe, the Birkenberg and the Hofelbusch , which belonged to the bunker line of the Stachelberg Fortress. After the Munich Agreement , Wernsdorf was added to the German Reich in 1938 and belonged to the Trautenau district until 1945 . After the end of the Second World War, Vernířovice came back to Czechoslovakia in 1945 . In the period that followed, the German residents were expelled ; the repopulation of the remote village with Czechs did not succeed. In 1950 Vernířovice was incorporated into Žacléř together with Prkenný Důl. 1960 Vernířovice lost the status of a district of Žacléř. The dilapidated houses were demolished in the 1960s. The Vernířovice desert then consisted of rubble overgrown by scrub and overgrown orchards.

After the Velvet Revolution in 1989, a house was rebuilt on the old foundation walls. A Dutch investor built several holiday homes in the lower part. The backrest north of Vernířovice is now used in the winter months as the Prkenný Důl ski area, there are three ski lifts available.
