Administrative division

  • Vinaře (165)
  • Vinice (94)

Etymology

The name is derived from the Czech word vinař (i.e. 'winemaker', 'wine grower'), meaning "the village of winemakers". The name Vinice means 'vineyard'.[3]

Geography

Vinaře is located about 17 kilometres (11 mi) east of Kutná Hora and 23 km (14 mi) southwest of Pardubice. It lies in an agricultural landscape of the Central Elbe Table. The highest point is at 296 m (971 ft) above sea level. The Doubrava River briefly crosses the municipal territory in the west.

History

The first written mention of Vinaře is from 1192, when half of the village was donated to the Teutonic Order. In 1242, the order acquired the second half of the village. In 1420, Vinaře was annexed to the Lichnice estate and acquired by the Trčka of Lípa family. From the end of the 16th century until the establishment of an independent municipality in 1850, Vinaře belonged to the Žleby estate.[4]

The village of Vinice was founded around 1784 by Count Adam Auersperg. It was established on the site of the former village of Drbohlavy, which disappeared centuries ago.[4]
