History
The first written mention of Břežany is from 1305. Until 1588, the village was divided into two parts; one part was owned by the royal chamber and the other was owned by the Prague archbishopric. In 1588, the entire village was acquired by the Smiřický noble family and annexed to the Kostelec estate. In 1622, the estate was bought by the Liechtenstein family. In 1639, during the Thirty Years' War, Břežany was looted by the Swedish army under the leadership of Johan Banér.
Geography
Břežany II is located about west of Kolín and east of Prague. It lies in a flat agricultural landscape on the border between the Central Elbe Table and Prague Plateau. In the eastern part of the municipal territory is a small flooded quarry.
