history

The first written mention of Kryczstorf or Krygsdorf took place in 1504 in the Liebau city ​​privilege by Bishop Stanislaus Thurzo . In it, the village was listed alongside Altwasser , Schmeil , Nuremberg , Herlsdorf and Drömsdorf as one of the six localities under the jurisdiction of the episcopal bailiwick of Liebau. It is assumed that since the establishment of the Vogtei Liebau in 1358, the village was one of the seven - not named - villages that had to pay court pennies to the Vogt. From 1581 the village was called Kriegsdorf , Kryksdorf or Krigsdorf . In 1589, Bishop Stanislaus Pavlovský von Pavlovitz consecrated the branch church of St. Trinity. The registers were kept in Liebau since 1659. School classes began in 1779. After the establishment of the new Altwasser parish, the Kriegsdorfer Church was re-parished there in 1784. In 1787 the school, also operated by the Piarists from Altwasser, moved into a newly constructed building. The Czech place name Wognowicze was first used in 1794. In 1835, 161 people lived in the 36 houses in the village. The schoolhouse was expanded between 1845 and 1846. Up until the middle of the 19th century, Kriegsdorf was always subject to the Olomouc prince-archbishop's chamber estate Liebau.

After the abolition of patrimonial , Kriegsdorf / Vojnovice formed a district of the town of Liebau from 1850 in the district administration of Mährisch Weißkirchen and the judicial district of the town of Liebau. In 1855 the place was assigned to the district Stadt Liebau and from 1868 the village belonged to the district Sternberg . In 1875, Kriegsdorf broke away from the town of Liebau and formed its own community. In 1880, 280 German-speaking residents lived in the 44 houses of the community. The volunteer fire brigade was founded in 1897 . In the 1900 census, the number of houses had increased to 47, while the number of residents had decreased to 247, including one Czech. The residents lived from agriculture, in 1900 520 hectares of the field were cultivated. In 1909, Kriegsdorf was assigned to the Bärn district . In 1921 there were 231 residents in the 60 houses of the community, 230 of whom were Germans and one stateless person. In 1929 there was a mill, distillery, cheese dairy, a water cooperative, the volunteer fire brigade and a loan fund. In 1930 the village consisted of 49 houses in which 221 Germans and one Czech lived. After the Munich Agreement , Kriegsdorf was added to the German Reich in 1938 and until 1945 belonged to the Bärn district and the judicial district of the city of Liebau. In 1939 there were 259 people in Kriegsdorf . After the end of World War II, the village came back to Czechoslovakia and the German residents were expelled.

In the course of the establishment of the Libavá military training area , Vojnovice was not repopulated in 1946. In 1949 the evacuated community was assigned to the Okres Olomouc and officially dissolved in 1950. The village was later shot and razed to the ground.

Since June 27, 1996, a large memorial stone in which the silhouette of the former church is carved has been commemorating the village. It was erected between 1938 and 1939 as a memorial to those who fell in the First World War; former residents of the village had it transformed into a memorial stone for Vojnovice / Kriegsdorf.
