History

The first written mention of Suchdol nad Lužnicí is from 1362, when it was bought by the Rosenberg family and joined to the Třeboň estate. The last member of the Rosenberg family died in 1611 and Suchdol was then inherited by the Schwamberg family. After the Battle of White Mountain (1620), properties of the Schwambergs were confiscated by Ferdinand II. The village was owned by the House of Habsburg until 1660, when it was bought by the House of Schwarzenberg.[2][3]

In 1876, the village was promoted to a market town.[2] In 2005, Suchdol nad Lužnici became a town.[3]
