history
Archaeological finds indicate a settlement of the municipal area since the Neolithic . The focus of the finds comes from the Bronze Age . Most of these pieces are now stored in the Rebešovice warehouse of the Moravian Museum as part of the Antonín Procházka collection . In 1945, the early historian Josef Poulík from Brno discovered an oval depression in the south-east of the town hall with finds from the Middle Danube barrow culture, which was later interpreted as a cult site of a fertility deity.
The first written mention of Šumice took place in 1350 in the course of a registration of the Moravian aristocratic property for the establishment of the regional court in Brno. The owners at that time were the von Wildenberg family. In 1371 Půta von Wildenberg sold Wildenberg Castle with all its accessories, including Šumice, to Margrave Johann Heinrich . The castle became extinct during the Moravian Brotherly War between Johann Heinrich's sons Jobst and Prokop . Margrave Jobst sold off the villages of the Wildenberg rule between 1385 and 1406. In 1402 Peter von Krawarn on Plumlov received the villages of Šumice, Pozořice , Kovalovice and Sivice as a gift. At this point the castle was already considered desolate. In 1406, Margrave Jobst Peter von Krawarn also donated the remaining Wildenberg goods that had remained in his possession until then. Šumice has had mining rights since 1417 . Viticulture was carried out in the Horní Hora, Dolní Hora, Pšenky, Regle and Jezviny corridors, on the latter there are now fields. Since the 15th century the landlords have changed several times, and since 1637 the goods belonged to the House of Liechtenstein . In 1807, three large fires broke out in Šumice, which ultimately reduced the entire village, which consisted of thatched-roof houses, to rubble and ashes.
After the abolition of patrimonial Šumice formed from 1850 a political municipality in the district administration Wischau . In 1893 the houses in the localities of Hloušek and Hradská burned down. In 1925 the municipality was renamed Viničné Šumice . After the dissolution of the Okres Vyškov, Viničné Šumice was assigned to the Okres Slavkov in 1950. This existed until 1960 and since the beginning of 1961 the community belongs to the Okres Brno-venkov.
