History

The first written mention of the village dates back to 1263, it is about a vladyka (lower nobleman) Sudslav of Dubné (Zvzlab de Dvdem). The village was held by a lower nobility (of Dubné, Roubíkové of Hlavatce, Dubenští of Chlum, Ojířové of Protivec) until the end of Bohemian Revolt, then it was confiscated to Adam Chval Kunáš of Machovice and in 1623 it was sold to the royal city of České Budějovice, which was the owner of Dubné until the abolition of serfdom.[2]

Since 1850 Dubné is an independent municipality, the other parts were connected on 12 June 1960.
