History & geography

History

The first written mention of Starý Kolín is from 1267, when the Church of Saint Andrew was consecrated. Although it is documented later than Kolín, the prefix starý (i.e. 'old') indicates that it is older than Kolín. Starý Kolín was owned by various burghers until 1547, when Emperor Ferdinand I confiscated it and joined it to the Kolín estate.

Geography

Starý Kolín is located about east of Prague. It lies in a fertile landscape in the Central Elbe Table. It is situated on the left bank of the Elbe River, at the confluence of the Elbe and Klejnárka rivers.
