history
The oldest news about the village dates back to 1424, when the Bítov chaplain Ješek gave the altar of St. Laurentius inherited the farm in Vysočany with a bunch of arable land and two wooded areas to the farmer Josef Meth in return for payment of an annual interest. The courtyard in question (No. 6) was later popularly referred to as the “old rectory”. In 1498 King dismissed Ladislaus Jagiello the castle Bítov with the associated villages, including Vysočany, from Lehn and left Burian Bítovský of Lichtenburg as a hereditary possession.
After the Vöttau branch of the Lichtenburg family ( Bítovský z Lichtenburka ) died out, the rule fell to Burian's daughter Ludmilla in 1572, who released the village from the obligation to seize in 1574 . In 1576 Ludmilla transferred the rule to Wolf Strein von Schwarzenau-Hartenstein, who sold it to Friedrich Jankowsky von Wlaschim ( Bedřich Jankovský z Vlašimě ) in 1612 . The manorial farm with sheep was also mentioned for the first time with this purchase. In 1736 the Counts of Daun inherited the property. In 1790, 176 people lived in the 34 houses of Vysočany.
In 1834 the village Wisokein or Wysočany consisted of 30 houses with 224 mostly Czech-speaking inhabitants. In the village there was an official herding farm with a sheep farm. Apart from that, there were three two- speed mills in the Želetawatal ; In a meadow the Majamühle ( Macův Mlýn ), below in a narrow rocky valley the Jagenteufelmühle ( Svobodův Mlýn ) and further downriver between wooded mountain ridges the Koberamühle ( Koberův Mlýn ) with a board saw. The parish, school and administrative location was Vöttau . Until the middle of the 19th century Wisokein remained subordinate to the allodial rule of Vöttau.
After the abolition of patrimonial Wisokein / Vysočany formed a municipality in the judicial district of Frain from 1849. In 1868 the village became part of the Znojmo region. After the First World War , the multi-ethnic state Austria-Hungary disintegrated , and Wisokein became part of the newly formed Czechoslovak Republic in 1918 . In 1930 the municipality reached its highest population with 293 inhabitants. At this time the construction of the Frain dam , with which the Thayatal was flooded, began; by 1933 the village of Vöttau was relocated from the Želetavka valley below Vysočany to the back east of the Horka. After the Munich Agreement of 1938, Vysočany remained with Czechoslovakia and was on the border with the German Empire until 1945. During this time the community was assigned to the Okres Moravské Budějovice, where it remained after the end of the Second World War. After the Okres Moravské Budějovice was abolished, Vysočany was assigned to the Okres Znojmo in 1960. Today Vysočany is a resort and describes itself as the western gateway to the Vranov dam . There are 36 holiday homes in the village.
