History

It is believed that this is done either 1140-1148 or after his coronation in 1158. During the Hussite Wars Emperor Sigismund escaped the village from the monastic property and sold it to Karl Steiner Viscount de Marsico HUCA Wokowa. His son Wenzel gave the village in January 1436 Malovci Pacov. 1530 sold the Lords of Malovci the reign of Wenceslas Chischka Rabenhaupt Sucha ( Václav Robmhap ze Suché ). Meanwhile, son of the same, leaving the government in 1550, including the villages Outěchovice, Bratřice and Vielanticum to Oldrich Španovský. This Vielanticum sold three years later to Václav Mahanec. 1614 was Oldrich Španovský D. J. the rule of the Strahov Abbot Johann Lohelius. His successor Caspar Questenberg sold the remote rule in 1620 with the consent of the Archbishop of Prague Lohelius for 9000 guilders to Jan Vosrovský. Meanwhile, property was confiscated after the Battle of White Mountain, and Emperor Ferdinand II gave Chischka the Strahov Monastery back. During the Thirty Years War, the rule was laid waste, and the parish became extinct in Chischka. The spiritual care took over in 1667, the pastor of Hořepník and from 1679 Patzauer pastor.
