History

The first written mention of the village was carried out in 1233 in the wake of the sale of Bohdanečský, Dobra, Humpolec, Pustina and Skrýšov by the Grand Master of the Cross with the Red Star, Hermann Balka, to the monastery Želiv. In the mid-14th century noblemen acquired the village and surrounding areas from the monastery and built in Bohdanečský a Vladikensitz. Vavrinec and Milota of Bohdanečský sealed in 1415 on a recourse against the burning of Jan Hus in Constance.

1514 rose Vladislav II the Hermann Bohdanečský associated village Zelena Bohdanečský to market town. It is believed that at this time there was a parish school in Zelena Bohdanečský. At the beginning of the 19th century visited after the introduction of compulsory education 100 children who came from the surrounding villages, the Bohdanečer school.

After the abolition of patrimonial Bohdanečský in 1850 with the districts Dvorecko and Kotoučov into an independent municipality in the district Ledeč. 1929 formed Kotoučov with Dvorecko own community.

During the Second World War, the guerrilla group " Tsarevo " of Dvorecko operated from. 1946, the school was connected as a branch of the public school in Zbraslavice. Due to the decline in pupil numbers, it was converted in the 1970s to a neunklassigen primary school. From 1978, the first- to fourth-grade students were only taught in Bohdanečský and two years later completely closed the school. In 1961, Kotoučov ( with Dvorecko ) Řeplice and Prostřední Ves incorporated ( with Šlechtín ) and the community came to Okres Kutná Hora.

Quarries

East of the village amphibolite is obtained in a quarry. The break is drowned in his teuferen degrading to a quarry lake. Operators since 1971 today Silnice Čáslav - Holding as

Another large quarry located south of Bohdanečský in the district Nová Louka. Therein, a dolomitic marble is obtained which on the fracture surface appears almost pure white in its brightest parts. To a lesser extent occur mousy areas and rare green retention. The marble is medium-grained and takes for its dolomite content is difficult to a good polish. The proportion of calcium carbonate is about 62 % and that of magnesium carbonate at about 36%. Your age after the deposit is located in the Moldanubian.

It is for the marble used in Bohemia and the Czech Republic is of great importance. The quarry Nová Louka opens up one of the few deposits that could meet the needs of highly crystalline white marble in the country when imports were not possible or desirable. In addition to the use of extraction waste to splitting and fine aggregates (pigments, plasters ) its use is mainly as a stone in the areas of pavers, slabs and steps and grave times.

The marble found extensive use as a paving stone. In the central Bohemia, it was common at least since the 19th century to occupy sidewalks in many cities with a hand- beaten marble pavement. But mainly there were three varieties of Czech natural stones in question. These were Bohdanečský (white marble), Kosoř (black limestone) and Slivenec ( red-brown limestone). The special character of this design of footpaths in the Central Bohemian towns was that each place had its dominant laying patterns, but was always designed with only these three types of stone. The high craftsmanship of the paver manufacturer and the old stone coaster is at the laying pattern of such marble floor tiling recognizable and in the remaining total amount may be unique to Central Europe. From the perspective of cultural and geological research such paved areas constitutes an invaluable asset dar. by Public Works this artful tilings are threatened with total destruction in various Czech cities. In 1900 the quarry was owned by the company break Johann Trpišowský. At this time the focus was on mining in the lime industry and because of its weather resistance on the pavement production (mosaic pavement, ie minimum size ). Proved are paving supplies to Kutna Hora, Pardubice, Teplice and Prague (for the Wenceslas Square ). The quarry is now the UNIKOM as operated since 1977 by its predecessor companies.
