Sloupnice is a municipality and village in Svitavy District in the Pardubice Region of the Czech Republic. It has about 1,800 inhabitants.

Administrative parts

The municipality is made up of the village parts of Dolní Sloupnice and Horní Sloupnice and the hamlets of Končiny 1.díl and Končiny 2.díl.

Etymology

The name "Sloupnice" has been transferred from the name of the eponymous local stream, mentioned first in 1167. The stream's name probably originates from the word slup used for a basket used in fishery. The name Končiny referred to a place located on the edge of the village away from its centre.[2]

Geography

Sloupnice is located about 20 kilometres (12 mi) north of Svitavy and 38 km (24 mi) southeast of Pardubice. It lies in the Svitavy Uplands. The highest point is the hill Řetová at 557 m (1,827 ft) above sea level.

Dolní Sloupnice and Horní Sloupnice form a linear village around the stream Sloupnický potok, along the east-west road connecting the towns Ústí nad Orlicí and Vysoké Mýto.

History

Sloupnice was founded during the colonization of this area in the second half of the 13th century. The first written mention of Sloupnice is from 1292, when it was donated to Zbraslav Monastery by King Wenceslaus II. However, the donation was probably cancelled and in the early 14th century, Vítek of Švábenice was documented as the owner.[2]

During the White Mountain Period from 1621-1782 when non-catholic religious practice was banned in Bohemia, there remained a community of secret protestant Christians in Sloupnice. After the Patent of Toleration was declared, at first services were held in nearby Džbánov. and later an evangelical church was founded in Dolní Sloupnice[3].

Since 1572, the large village was divided into two village parts (Horní –"Upper" and Dolní – "Lower") for administrative purposes. In 1924, the two parts became two separate municipalities and in 1976, they were merged again.[2]

From 1 January 2007, Sloupnice is no longer a part of Ústí nad Orlicí District and belongs to Svitavy District.[4]
