Established
by Prince Vladislav I in 1115, the
Benedictine monastery at Kladruby was
set into a sparsely settled landscape
inhabited by Slavonic population. It was
provided with vast estates; in
particular, in a triangle formed by the
Mže River, the Úhlavka River and the
frontier forest.
The
first Czech monks were soon joined by
missionaries from the nearby town of
Zwiefalten. Close relation with
Zwiefalten were being kept even later,
when the Czechs recovered their
numerical superiority in the monastery.
Several times, the monastery became a
venue of discreet diplomatic
negotiations. For example, against the
background of the culminating conflict
between the Czech church and the
temporal lords, Přemysl I met here
representatives of the curia.
After
having been Gothicized, the original
Romanesque church was consecrated in
King Wenceslas I’s presence in 1233.
Sometime around 1233, under Abbot Reiner,
the village of (Old) Kladruby was
established in the vicinity of the
monastery; namely, next to the current
churchyard. By virtue of the astute
Abbot Reiner’s purposive acquisition
activities, the monastery considerably
expanded its estates around Kladruby.
