'''Lnáře''' ({{lang-de|Schlüsselburg}}, in English ''Lnar'') is a small municipality in the [[Czech Republic]] located {{convert|35|km}} northwest of [[Písek]] city or {{convert|50|km}} southeast of [[Plzeň|Pilsen]]. It is situated on the shores of three ponds within municipal borders in the northwest corner of the formerly autonomous [[Prachens|Prachens Region]], today in the [[Strakonice District]], [[South Bohemia]].
'''Lnáře''' ({{langx|de|Schlüsselburg}}) is a municipality and village in [[Strakonice District]] in the [[South Bohemian Region]] of the [[Czech Republic]]. It has about 700 inhabitants.


==Administrative parts==
The name of municipality is derived from the [[Slavonic languages|Slavonic]] word ''len'' ("[[flax]]") and combined with a suffix which gives a meaning of "flax-makers" or "flax producers". The German name has different etymology: ''Schlüssel'' means "key" and ''Burg'' means "stronghold, castle"; according to ancient legend, a golden key was found by plougher on the building site of local New Chateau.
The village of Zahorčice is an administrative part of Lnáře.

==Etymology==
The name Lnáře is derived from the [[Slavonic languages|Slavonic]] word ''lnář'' (meaning person who cultivate, process, or sale [[flax]]). The German name is derived from ''Schlüssel'' (means "key") and ''Burg'' (means "castle"). It refers to a key worn in coat of arms of the noble family of Schlüsselberg who probably founded the local aristocratic residence.<ref name=about>{{cite web |title=Obec Lnáře se představuje|url=https://www.lnare-obec.cz/obec%2Dlnare%2Dse%2Dpredstavuje/d-1312/p1=1352|publisher=Obec Lnáře|language=cs|access-date=2021-08-23}}</ref>

==Geography==
Lnáře is located about {{convert|23|km}} north of [[Strakonice]] and {{convert|40|km|abbr=on}} southeast of [[Plzeň]], in the historical region of [[Prácheňsko]]. It lies in the [[Blatná Uplands]]. The highest point is the hill Jezbyně at {{convert|577|m|ft|abbr=on}} above sea level.

The built-up area is situated on the shores of three fishponds, connected by the [[Lomnice (river)|Lomnice]] River (here also called Smolivecký potok): Veský, Zámecký and Podhájský. The fourth large pond, located in the southern part of the municipal territory, is Nový.


==History==
==History==
The first written mention of Lnáře is from 1318, when it is written about the then owner of the village Habart of Lnáře. The village of Zahorčice is first mentioned in 1383. In the 14th century, the tradition of pond farming began. Pond farming and forestry became the main source of lordship income for next centuries. The first mention of the stronghold and the pond below it is from 1465.<ref name=about/><ref name=history>{{cite web |title=Dějiny Lnář v datech|url=https://www.lnare-obec.cz/dejiny%2Dlnar%2Dv%2Ddatech/d-1302/p1=1302|publisher=Obec Lnáře|language=cs|access-date=2021-08-23}}</ref>
The municipality is the former centre of a vast agrary husbandry including two small towns and about 50 villages in its proximity (only the small settlement [[Zahorčice]] is still administered by Lnáře). Such was the situation between the mid-15th century and the mid-19th century. After this period of relative prosperity (with a few pauses incurred by civil convulsions) emerged an era of nationwide population decline in all counties in [[Central Europe]] (with exceptions in entirely undeveloped mountainous counties in the [[Carpathian Mountains]] system etc.), and the local population significantly decreased to the current number of fewer than 750 people.


In 1899, the railway was built. The construction of the I/20 road in 1931 and 1953–1954 through Lnáře further improved the transport accessibility of the municipality.<ref name=about/>
Municipality have got traces of human settlement since 7th–6th centuries BC. As proof are left burying-grounds with remains of funeral equipment on the shores of pond Měleč close to the municipality. Although continually inhabited, some influx of [[Slavs]] also occurred in the 8th century. Since 13th century, the settlement has been denser and small stronghold from wood was built.


==Demographics==
The oldest mention of Lnáře or Schlüsselburg dates back to 1319, when it was referenced to the local Old Stronghold, formerly wooden fort, as the site of governor of Lnáře district (descendants of that governor later became hereditary [[knight]]s of Lnáře). Lnáře was a village hidden in woods, on the shores of muddy streams in [[moorland]]. This moorland was (as in case of town [[Třeboň]]) very soon turned into a basin with dozens of ponds and lakes, later numbering almost four hundred. When some decline in fishing industry occurred during the 17th century, many ponds and lakes were dried up and these [[Land reclamation|reclaimed plots]] have been used for pasture for sheep – numbering about 13,000 of those animals as of 1840. Moreover, a new unusual variant of [[common carp]], with the name ''Lnářský modrák'' ("Blue carp of Lnáře"), was cultivated at the beginning of the 20th century by specialist [[Engineer's degree#Poland, Czech Republic and Slovakia|Ing.]] Theodor Mokrý, who substantially contributed to revival of local fishing industry.

In April of 1945, the [https://encyclopedia.ushmm.org/content/en/article/the-4th-armored-division 4th US Armored Division] liberated parts of Lnar. Other parts had already been liberated by the [[Red Army|Soviet (Red) Army]]. A tense standoff took place. The US forces were not permitted to help liberate [[Prague]]. A commemoration to the US liberation was placed on May 6, 1945 across from the Chateau Lnar - at the site where US tanks arrived. A second plaque near-by commemorates Tank-Units of the [[1st Czechoslovak Armoured Brigade|1st Czechoslovak Independent Armoured Brigade]] who joined in the liberation in May 1945.

A train line was built between the towns of [[Blatná]] and [[Nepomuk]] near the start of the 20th century leading near Lnáře municipality, which is still in use. The construction of national route I/20 (now part of the [[European route E49]]) through Lnáře was also beneficial for the local population.

Lnáře has two chateaux: the Old Stronghold (''Stará tvrz'') and the New Chateau (''Nový zámek''). The Old Stronghold is 690 years old, while the New Chateau is only about 340 years old. Next to them is located an [[English garden]] (4 ha²) with a few pools, many flower-beds of roses, a fountain, a small [[Baroque architecture|Baroque]] mosque with two low [[minaret]]s and beautiful old trees with sculptures of the ancient gods carved by a famous Baroque sculptor. The New Chateau is adorned with great paintings of dozens [[Greek gods]]. The Old Stronghold is used for municipality needs, including as a gallery and [[Library|bibliotheca]], as well as leasing space for doctors and masseuses and flats for rent.
Lnáře has two castles: the Lnáře Stronghold (also called ''Old Stronghold'') and the Lnáře Castle (also called ''New Castle''). The Old Stronghold was built before 1318 and rebuilt in the Renaissance style around 1597. After it ceased to satisfy the comforts of a manor's residence, the neighbouring castle was built. Today the Old Stronghold houses the tourist infocentre and a gallery.<ref>{{cite web |title=Tvrz Lnáře|url=https://www.kudyznudy.cz/aktivity/tvrz-lnare|publisher=CzechTourism|language=cs|access-date=2022-08-29}}</ref>


The Lnáře Castle is a Baroque building, surrounded by a {{convert|4|ha|0|adj=on}} large [[English landscape garden|English park]].

Lnáře is divided into five quarters: ''Malá Strana'' (Lesser Part), ''Svatá Anna'' (Saint Anna), ''Přístav'' (Harbour), ''Zámky'' (Chateaux) and ''Centrum'' (Centre). Svatá Anna part, with its monastery of the [[Discalced Augustinians]] and church, dates back to the 18th century. Today these buildings are used for government purposes, mainly as an insane asylum, but it will stop its activity in time. Aside from this, Lnáře has three more places for prayers – the Chapel of Adventist Church in the New Chateau, the Catholic Church by the graveyard and the Chapel of [[Hussite Church]] in the centre of municipality.


Other sights include the monastery of the [[Discalced Augustinians]] founded in 1684 by the Church of the Holy Trinity. The church itself was built in 1599 and extended in the early Baroque style in 1666.

A new development is the dense system of tourism cycle-ways with rest places. These cycle-ways are created for all kinds of people, allowing them to visit all the landmarks of the unique local landscape.
