Pnětluky (until 1923 Netluky; German: Netluk bei Laun) is a municipality and village in Louny District in the Ústí nad Labem Region of the Czech Republic. It has about 400 inhabitants.
The village of Konětopy is an administrative part of Pnětluky.
The name Pnětluky is derived from a term referring to people who beat the trunks hard. The name Konětopy means "drowning the horses" and was likely used mockingly. [2]
Pnětluky is located about 13 kilometres (8 mi) southwest of Louny and 49 km (30 mi) northwest of Prague. It lies in the Džbán range. The highest point is the hill Pravda at 484 m (1,588 ft) above sea level. The brook Pnětlucký potok flows through the municipality.
The first written mention of Pnětluky is from 1250; Konětopy was first mentioned in 1357. The first fortress was established here in the 14th century, but in 1466, it was already abandoned. In the 15th century, Pnětluky was owned by members of the Kolowrat family. They had built the Pravda Castle and established the Pravda estate, which included Pnětluky and Konětopy. [2]
In 1523, the estate was bought by the Lobkowicz family. They had a new fort built in Pnětluky, which has been preserved to this day. During the Thirty Years' War, the village was devastated, including a church from the mid-14th century. The Pravda estate was then merged with Divec and later with Cítoliby. From 1802 to the 20th century, the Cítoliby estate was property of the House of Schwarzenberg. Since the first half of the 19th century, Konětopy was known for its hops. [2]
