Translation


Since one English translation of the German verb "kotzen" is "to vomit", the town was jokingly[original research?] incorrectly referred to in Ripley's Believe-It-or-Not under the title "Barfburg". More prosaically the name probably comes from the Slavonic-German noun "Kotzen" which means market place, as per the Theater an der Kotzen, Divadlo v Kotcích in Prague.


Personalities


Explorer Karl Klaus von der Decken was born in Kotzen in 1833.
