History & geography

History

The first written mention of Těšany is from 1131. The owners of Těšany changed often. Economic growth occurred in the 16th century and many fishponds were established around the village. From 1666 until its abolition in 1785, the village was owned by the Dominican monastery in Brno. The proximity of Brno and the location on military roads often had unfortunate consequences for Těšany. During the Thirty Years' War (twice in 1619 and once in 1645), Těšany was burned down. The village was also damaged during the passage of Prussian troops in 1742 during the First Silesian War and was looted by the French army in 1805 during the Napoleonic Wars. The last major disaster was the passage of troops during the Austro-Prussian War in 1866.

Geography

Těšany is located about southeast of Brno. It lies in an agricultural landscape, on the border between the Dyje–Svratka Valley and Ždánice Forest range. The highest point is the hill Vinohrady at above sea level. The fishpond Těšany is situated on the eastern municipal border.
