History & geography

History

The first written mention of Bohušovice nad Ohří is from 993, when Duke Boleslaus II donated the village to the Břevnov Monastery. The village often changed hands. In 1384, the monastery in Doksany had built the Church of Saint Procopius. From 1436 to 1460, Bohušovice was owned by the town of Litoměřice, and then it was acquired by Vilém of Kounice, who sold it to the Kaplíř of Sulejovice family. However, after a court trial, the village returned to the ownership of the Doksany Monastery. During the Thirty Years' War, Bohušovice was repeatedly looted and damaged by Saxons and Swedes. After the partial restoration of the village, it was once again plundered, this time by the Prussians in the Seven Years' War. The economic development of the village started with the construction of the railway from Prague to Dresden, which was put into operation in 1850. In 1920, Bohušovice was promoted to a town. After it ceased to be a town during World War II, the status of the town was restored in 1998.
