Until 1918, HEINRICHSGRÜN was part of the Austrian monarchy (Austria side after the compromise of 1867), in the GRASLITZ (Kraslice) district, one of the 94 Bezirkshauptmannschaften in Bohemia.[1]
In 1938, it was occupied by the Nazi army as one of the municipalities in Sudetenland. The German-speaking population was expelled in 1945 (see the Beneš decrees) and replaced by Czech settlers.
