history

Záboří was the ancestral seat of the Vladiken family Zabořsky. It is believed that a fortified manor house was built in Záboří between the 9th and 11th centuries. The Bresnitzer or Gunthersteig, leading from the Bohemian Forest near Gutwasser over the Otava Valley , the Prachin Castle , Horažďovice to Blatná and Březnice , led via Záboří since the 10th and 11th centuries . The alleged first mention of the place in a deed of foundation of the Dominican monastery near the church of St. George in Prague Castle by Ottokar I Přemysl from 1198, in which Pole, Lažánky and Bratronice are also supposed to be listed, is not verifiable and also improbable.

Záboří was first mentioned in a document in 1228 as the property of the St. George Monastery in Prague Castle. Because of the long distance, he sold the estate to a Kolda in 1305, and the church was mentioned for the first time. Since 1384, Záboří has had its own pastor.

In the 15th century the Záboří manor was attached to the Kadow Fortress. In the second half of the 16th century, the captain of the Prachiner district, Johann d. Ä. Hořitzky von Prosty, who also owned the Bratronice , Pole and Bezdiekau estates , Kadow and Záboří. He had the church expanded and the tomb built. After his death in 1616 he was also buried there. In 1636 a school house was built. Between 1636 and 1649 Albrecht Beneda von Nectin belonged to the following owners. This put his wife Anna Maria née Wratislaw von Mitrowitz and the sons of Nikolaus Alesch von Zrzawa jointly as heirs. They separated Záboří from Kadov and sold the estate with the mills Kuš, Blatenka and Lhotka on May 19, 1662 to Alesch Ferdinand Wratislaw von Mitrowitz, who attached it to his rule in Schlüsselburg . In 1707, 90 inhabitants died in Záboří in an outbreak of the plague.

In 1840 Zaboř / Zabořj consisted of 49 houses with 318 inhabitants. The parish church to the apostles Peter and Paul, the parish and the school were under lordly patronage. There was also a manorial farm, a forester's house and a sheep farm, as well as the Kusse mill. Zaboř was the parish and school location for Laschanek , Bratronitz , Gindřichowitz ( Jindřichovice ), Katowsko ( Katovsko ), Čečelowitz , Hlupin , Daubrawitz , Mečichow , Nahošín ( Nahošín ), Laschan and Miltschitz ( Milčice ). Until the middle of the 19th century, Zaboř remained subject to the lordship of Schlüsselburg.

After the abolition of patrimonial Zaboř formed from 1850 a municipality in the district administration and the judicial district of Blatná. The old school burned down in 1862, and a new school building was built on the slope under the church, which had to be expanded just ten years later. The cemetery at the church was closed in 1873 and a new cemetery was consecrated on the southwestern outskirts. The volunteer fire brigade was founded in 1888. In 1904 a post office was set up. In 1957 an agricultural cooperative was established . After the Okres Blatná was abolished, the municipality was assigned to the Okres Strakonice in 1960. In 1961 Bratronice (with Katovsko) was incorporated. In the 1960s a new school pavilion was built, which today houses the kindergarten and elementary school. After a referendum, Bratronice and Katovsko broke up on November 24, 1990 and formed their own municipality. In 2005 a multi-purpose sports hall was built on the sports field.

Culture and sights

Three-aisled parish church of the apostles Peter and Paul, the originally Romanesque and later early Gothic building was probably built in the first half of the 13th century by the St. George monastery on the 561 m high knoll west of the village. In 1607 the side aisles and the crypt were added. In the crypt are Johann d. Ä. Hořitzky von Prosty, Adam Wratislaw von Mitrowitz, Barbara Lažansky and Adam Lažansky are buried. The free-standing wooden bell tower burned down at the end of the 17th century. In 1713 the interior of the church was redesigned. At the same time, a new stone bell tower was built, which is connected to the church by a baroque churchyard portal. In 1732 a 32-step baroque stone staircase was laid from the rectory to the church.
