Ohrobec is a municipality and village in Prague-West District in the Central Bohemian Region of the Czech Republic. It has about 1,600 inhabitants.
Geography
Ohrobec is located about 11 kilometres (7 mi) south of Prague. It lies in the Prague Plateau. The highest point is at 385 m (1,263 ft) above sea level. The municipality is situated on an elevated plateau above the Vltava River, which flows along the western municipal border, just outside the municipality. A nameless brook supplies a system of the small fishponds in the centre of the village. Ohrobec is urbanistically fused with the village of Zálepy (administratively a part of Dolní Břežany).
History
The first written mention of Ohrobec is in a deed of King Charles IV from 1356, when it belonged to the Zvole estate. In 1363, the village was bought by the Zbraslav Monastery. In 1436, the Zvole estate was acquired by the Beneda of Nečtiny family and annexed to the Dolní Břežany estate. Ohrobec remained part of this estate until the establishment of an independent municipality in 1848.[3]
