The
first records of the castle are as old as 1318 when oi was own
by Ctibor from Kozli who
also that year participated in disturbances in the country.
Brothers Mares, Herman and Kunrat from Chvojno owned Kozli
through the reign of Charles IV. From 1367-1378 they were also
known to be the patrons of the church in Chvojenec. The next
owner of Kozli was Petr from Petichvost who was known as a
loyal supporter of the king and in 1404 he fought with the
king against the Unity of Brothers. He died that year and his
wife Anezka inherited the castle together with the field. The
priest from Vadslavice and the nobility from Kozel were
interested in the field and after a long dispute the priest
from Vadslavice came with an offer of serving a mass in the
name of deceased Petr and Anezka three times a year. Anezka
then sold the castle to Benes Libensky from Dube who was
from 1414-1418 the patron Of the church in Chvojen.
Benes
Libensky had two children educated by Mr Pecha. In his free
time started Mr Pecha to write manuscripts from Kozli. ( 1st
manuscript in 1427, 2nd manuscript in 1434) Benes
Libunsky was belonged to the royal troops and fought in 1434
in the battle Near Lipany and he also took part in conquering
Ostrotec in 1435. His so Benes Libunsky from Dube sold the
castle in 1461 to Zdenek from Sternberk, the owner of
Konopiste.Since then there are two last record about Kozli in
the years 1495 and 1500 but the castle is said to be deserted. |
