Geography

Nupaky is located about 7 kilometres (4 mi) southeast of Prague. It lies in a flat agricultural landscape in the Prague Plateau.

History

The first written mention of Nupaky is from 1380. Until the Hussite Wars, part of the village was owned by the Vyšehrad Chapter and part by a local noble. After the wars, it was owned by a family who called themselves the Lords of Nupaky. From 1514, Nupaky was a part of the Koloděje estate. In 1623, Nupaky was confiscated from Václav Štastný Rous of Vražkov as a result of the Battle of White Mountain. From 1623 until the establishment of the independent municipality in 1848, Nupaky belonged to the Uhříněves estate, owned by the Liechtenstein family. [2]
