Geography

Nové Vilémovice is located in the central part of the territory of Uhelná, about 19 km northwest of Jeseník and 84 km north of Olomouc. It lies in the Golden Mountains.

History

Vilémovice was founded in the 13th century. Initially, it was owned by the members of the Haugwitz family, who sold it to the bishops of Breslau. Before 1420, the village was abandoned, and was restored only in 1580. Nové Vilémovice was damaged by the Thirty Years' War. In 1765, the Chapel of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary was built. In 1832, the chapel became a church.

Until 1918, Nové Vilémovice was populated only by ethnic Germans, but since 1918 Czechs have also moved to the village. After World War II, the German-speaking inhabitants were expelled, but due to the unfavorable location of the village in the mountains, only a few Czechs repopulated the village. In 1976, the church burned down and was torn down.
