Geography

History

The first written mention of Šumice is from 1350. The village was part of the Vildenberk estate, owned by Jobst of Moravia from 1371, but the Vildenberk Castle was abandoned before 1402. Jobst donated the village to Petr of Kravaře in 1402. In 1417, Šumice acquired the vineyard right. The village then often changed owners, which lasted until 1637. From 1637 to 1920, Šumice was a property of the Liechtenstein family. [2]

In 1925, the name of the municipality was changed to Viničné Šumice (from vinice, meaning 'vineyard'). [2]
