The first written mention of the monastery of St. Katharina in the village belonging to the New Town of Prague took place in 1266. During the Hussite Wars, Zdiby came to secular owners from 1420. Count Radetzky von Radetz, who also owned Přemyšlení, belonged to them from the 17th century. Zdiby was on the Old Post Road, which ran north from Prague.
After the abolition of patrimonial Zdiby formed a parish in the Karlín district from 1850. In 1875 the brewing family Martin and Marie Stejskal from Smíchov bought the castle including the brewery, brickworks and the land for 175,000 guilders. In 1890 the new castle brewery started production. From 1928 the municipality belonged to the Praha-venkov district. From 1946 the community came to Okres Praha-sever and since 1961 it belongs to Okres Praha-východ. In 1948 the “community of heirs Josef Stejskal, Zdiby” was expropriated and their property was nationalized.

Attractions
- Zdiby Castle, built at the end of the 18th century in place of the old fortresses. After 1948 the chateau became the seat of a state estate, which was later attached to the Ďáblice state estate and, after the reform of the state estate, to the Odolena Voda estate . During the communist rule, the inventory from the Renaissance period, including the paintings, was destroyed. It later served as a boarding school for apprentices and was later transferred to the music fund, which carried out reconstruction measures. At the time of the Velvet Revolution , it was scheduled for demolition. In 1992 it went to the Stejskal community of heirs in restitution, which began with the renovation.
