Geography
Pavlov is located about 5 kilometres (3 mi) southeast of Kladno and 11 km (7 mi) west of Prague. It lies in a flat agricultural landscape of the Prague Plateau.
History
The first written mention of Pavlov is from 1519, when there was a farm owned by the Saint Vitus Chapter in Hostouň. In 1726, the then-owner Ferdinand Kustod of Zubří and Lipka administratively connected 10 houses and a brewery from the surrounding settlements to the farm and created the Nový Dvůr manor.[2]
After the manor changed hands several times, it was bought by Leopold Paul in 1799. He had built a manor house and a settlement next to the farm, and named it after himself Pavlov (Paulow in German).[2]
