History
The first written mention of Kralice is from 1225. In 1304, it was already a market town. In the first half of the 15th century, it was owned by the Lords of Boskovice, then it was ruled by the Lords of Cimburk. For most of the 16th century, Kralice was a property of the Pernštejn family. In 1637, the estate was bought by the Counts of Salm-Neuburg. In 1707–1725, it was owned by Count Jan Josef of Rottal. In 1725, the market town was acquired by the Sam-Sailer family, who were its last feudal owners.[3]
