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]
