History

The first written mention of Poličná is from 1310. It was probably founded around 1270.[2]

Poličná was joined to the town of Valašské Meziříčí in 1976, until a vote to separate the town was held on 21 April 2012, in which the majority voted in favor. On 1 January 2013, Poličná officially became independent again.[2]
