History

The first written mention of Dublovice is from 1228, when the village was donated to the St. George's Convent in Prague. From 1326 to the second half of the 15th century, most of the area was owned by the Rosenberg family. The Rosenbergs were then forced to sell it to the Lobkowicz family because of debts. From 1580 to 1604, Dublovice was property of Jakub Krčín, then the village returned to the Lobkowicz family.^[2]^[3]
