History

The first written mention of Županovice is from 1235, when Constance of Hungary donated the village to her daughter Agnes of Bohemia. Agnes bequeathed Županovice to the Knights of the Cross with the Red Star at St. Francis in Prague. They built a hospital here and remained the owners of the village until serfdom was abolished in 1848.[2]

During the construction of the Slapy Reservoir in 1954, most of the historical part of the village was demolished and mostly new family houses remained.[3]
