History
The first written mention of Vlačice is from 1189, when it was owned by nobleman Hroznata of Peruc. Výčapy was first mentioned in 1277. From 1279 at the latest until the Hussite Wars, Vlačice belonged to the monastery in Vilémov, then the village was acquired by Emperor Sigismund. He donated the village to the Trčka of Lípa family, which owned Vlačice for more than 100 years. Among the next owners were various lesser noblemen. From 1612 until the establishment of an independent municipality in 1848, Vlačice was part of the Žehušice estate.[4]
