Squire
Sudomír, the Lord of Horka, between 1260 and 1271, founded the village.
The original Great Moravian settlement was situated at the Morávka river,
at the locality called "Hrůdy". Here we can find some fortification
remnants of this walled-in settlement.
Not far from here, the remnants of a large settlement from the Late Stone
Age (3000 years B.C.) were found. Other archaeological researches
discovered deep storage pits for corn from the Late Bronze Age (1800
B.C..), a large Celtic settlement from the 3rd – 2nd century B.C.. and a
German settlement from the Younger Roman Period (4th century A.D.). All
those findings and especially a plenty of crocks substantiate this area
had been settled continuously since the 3rd millennium B.C. to the 13th
century A.D. and it represents one of the largest settlements within our
area.
Some traditional farmhouses, the so-called earthen houses from Danubian
region have been safeguarded in the village. In the village green, there
can be seen a Noble yard and a bell-tower from the 18th century. The
functionalistic Church of Christ the King was built between 1930 and 1933.
The complex of so-called German houses was built for needs of tax guards
between 1942 and 1944.
Noteworthy is the Bata-Canal landing place with the renovated wagon
tippler. It served for reloading the coal from wagons to boats. Since
2004, it has become an attractive sight. In the valley of the Sudoměřický
