History & geography

History

The first written mention of Markvartovice is from 1377, when it was owned by Rosat, a forester of the Opava princes. Until 1551, the village was a seat of the Bzenec knights. Then the village often changed owners until 1673, when it became the property of the Jesuits from Opava. Their reckless reign led to an uprising of the inhabintants in 1734. From 1742 to 1918, after Maria Theresa had been defeated, the village belonged to Prussia. In 1920, it became part of the newly established Czechoslovakia.

Geography

Markvartovice is located about north of Ostrava. It lies in the Opava Hilly Land. The highest point is at above sea level. The stream Ludgeřovický potok flows through the municipality.
