History & geography

History

The first written mention of Loučeň is in a deed of Bishop Peregrin from 1223. Until 1363, the village was divided into several parts with different owners. In 1363, all the parts were bought by the Barons of Kopidlno. It is not known how long this family held Loučeň. At the beginning of the 16th century, the village was a property of the Křinecký of Ronov family. After 1599, the estate was bought by the Berka of Dubá family. Their properties were confiscated after the Battle of White Mountain and Loučeň was acquired by the Waldstein family in 1622. During the Thirty Years' War, in 1630 and 1639, the village was burned down. From 1756 to 1808, Loučeň was held by the Fürstenberg family, and then the estate was inherited by the Thurn und Taxis family, who were the last noble owners of Loučeň. In 1906, Loučeň was promoted to a market town.
