The story

A settlement at the site possibly already existed during the time of the Great Moravian Empire in the 9th century, however, the main Great Moravian gord was situated on the hill across the brook Gránický potok. The gord was one of the first places in Moravia where Christianity appeared. After 1029, the gord served as the residence of a Přemyslid principality within the Bohemian March of Moravia and a strategically important outpost near the border with the Bavarian March of Austria in the south. Around 1100, the administrative centre was moved from the gord to a new castle, today known as the Znojmo Castle. In 1101, Moravian Duke Luitpold of Znojmo built the Rotunda of Saint Catherine in the castle.

The Znojmo Castle was seized and demolished by Duke Vladislaus II of Bohemia in 1145. In 1190, Duke Conrad II founded the Louka Monastery of the Premonstratensian order at Znojmo.

The first written mention of Znojmo is from 1226. The royal town of Znojmo was founded shortly before 1226 by King Ottokar I of Bohemia on the plains in front of the rebuilt castle and was fortified. It was one of the first royal towns in Moravia.

Znojmo survived the Hussite Wars unscathed, when the Hussites failed to capture the town, and prospered. In the 15th and 16th centuries, networks of burgher houses with a system of underground passages were built as a part of the fortifications. The Renaissance and late Gothic houses are preserved to this day. At that time, the town was ethnically mixed Czech-German and the burghers were mainly German speaking. The development of the town ended with the Thirty Years' War. Znojmo was conquered and ransacked repeatedly. It took over a hundred years for the town to recover.

From the 19th century, Znojmo is best known as the site for the Armistice of Znaim concluded there on 12 July 1809 after the Battle of Znaim, following the decisive Battle of Wagram, between Emperor Napoleon and the archduke Charles, which had taken place seven days earlier.

Since the end of World War I, Znojmo was within the newly established state of Czechoslovakia, except for 1938–1945 during the Nazi German occupation when it was administered as part of the Reichsgau Niederdonau. The German population of the town was expelled after World War II according to the Beneš decrees.
