History
There was a Slavic settlement on the site of Bavoryně around 872, but it later disappeared. Bavoryně was then founded probably in the second half of the 11th century. The first written mention of Bavoryně is from 1088, under its old name Obryně. From 1336 to 1437, the village was owned by the town of Beroun. After that it was owned by various lesser noblemen.[4]
In 1850, Bavoryně became a municipal part of Zdice. From 1889, it was a separate municipality. In 1945–1948, the German-speaking population was expelled. From 1980 to 1990, it was again a part of Zdice, and since 1990, it has been separate.[4][5]
