History
The first written mention of the Libchavy area is from 1227, when there was a forested area called Na Lubhave. The first written mention of the Libchavy village is from 1360. The village was founded during the colonisation between 1265 and 1285. It was initially called Německé Libchavy was later divided into three villages: Dolní Libchavy, Horní Libchavy and Prostřední Libchavy. Prostřední Libchavy was later absorbed by Horní Libchavy. In 1976, Dolní Libchavy and Horní Libchavy were merged into one municipality. Until 1945, Libchavy was predominantly a German-speaking municipality, but most of the inhabitants could also speak Czech and a specific German dialect arose here. After World War II, most of the German population was expelled and the municipality was partly resettled by Czechs.
