Mladá Vožice is a town in the South Bohemian Region of the Czech Republic about 17 km north-east of Tábor. ==History== The town originated from a settlement around a royal castle built on a hill and is known to have two churches as early as Charles IV's period. According to local resources, the castle was erected by Prince Spytihněv's order to house silver from the nearby mines. One of the earliest owners of the town might have been Stanimír z Vožice (Ztanimirum de Bazychce), as known from a 1273 written resource. The town then belonged to several dynasties, one of which gave the town its coat of arms: a tower set on fortification walls with two coats of arms on the sides. Vožice goods were probably owned by the royal chamber but were frequently pawned or lent to feudal lords for services to the king. One of the first ones was Vilém of Vožice who possessed the estate till 1318. From 1318 to 1425 Vožice was owned by the lords of Landštejn, Janovice, Orlík, Prague and Ronov houses. In March 1420, after the Battle of Sudoměř, Vožice was occupied by about 2000 horse riders led by Mikeš Divůček of Jemniště, the master of the Kutná Hora mint. On Great Friday morning, 1420, Jan Žižka attacked the town and set it on fire. Many lords were captured or killed and just those who had escaped to the castle got away with their lives. Žižka also seized a lot of horses for his army. In September 1425 commander Jan Hvězda of Vícemilice aka Bzdinka conquered the castle after 5 weeks' besiegement, had the castle destroyed and the town was attached to Vlašim. Mladá Vožice was then owned by many feudal houses, of which Přehořovští of Kvasejovice had a chapel built on top of a hill from the castle ruins in 1646. In 1678 the estate changed owners for the Küenburgs, who adjoined other smaller possessions in the area and established it a hereditary estate. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Mladá Vožice」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
