Geography

History
[edit | edit source]It was granted town rights before 1290.[4] It was ravaged by the Hussites in 1428.[3] In 1590, Protestants took over the local church and appointed their preacher, but in 1625 the Catholic parish priest returned.[3] During the Thirty Years' War, in 1625, the town was burned by the Swedes.[3] It was rebuilt only in 1676.[3] The local church received a painting of the Madonna, given by Pope Innocent XI to King John III Sobieski of Poland after his victory at Vienna in 1683.[3]
