Nové Strašecí is a town in Rakovník District in the Central Bohemian Region of the Czech Republic. It has about 5,700 inhabitants.

Administrative parts

The village of Pecínov is an administrative part of Nové Strašecí.

Etymology

The name Strašecí is derived from the personal name Strašata, meaning "Strašata's (settlement)". The attribute nové ('new') is used from 1554, after the town was completely rebuilt as a result of a large fire.[2]

Geography

Observation tower on Mackova hora

Nové Strašecí is located about 13 kilometres (8 mi) northeast of Rakovník and 32 km (20 mi) west of Prague. It lies in the Džbán range. The highest point is the hill Mackova hora at 488 m (1,601 ft) above sea level.

History

The first written mention of Strašecí is from the period 1334–1343. Shortly after, the village was promoted to a market town. It was a part of the Křivoklát estate, owned by the royal chamber. During the 15th century, Strašecí lost its privileges, but in 1503, it was promoted to a town by King Vladislaus II. In 1553, the town was destroyed by large fire and entirely rebuilt.[3]

Pecínov was first mentioned in 1556. The original part of the settlement disappeared after World War II due to fire clay mining and remained only the upper part of the settlement, which was established in the 1830s.[3]
