    History:
    11th-16th centuries
    In the 11th or 12th century, Czech settlers and German colonizers established a settlement named Habersdorf, the predecessor of Liberec, on the trade route from Bohemia to Lusatia. In the 13th century, a second settlement named Reichenberg was established near the first one. The two settlements later merged. The first written mention of Liberec under its German name, Reichenberg, is from 1352.
    Starting in 1278, the area was owned by the noble Bieberstein family. Reichenberg suffered from the passing through of troops during the Hussite Wars, then was burned down in 1469 during a battle with the army of King George of Poděbrady. After the Biebersteins died out, the Frýdlant estate, which included Reichenberg, was bought by the Redern family in 1558. The Rederns contributed significantly to the development of the settlement as they built new buildings, modernized the settlement, and laid the foundation of the textile industry. In 1577, Reichenberg was promoted to a town by Emperor Rudolf II.
    17th-19th centuries
    From 1600, the town was administered by Kateřina of Redern, who obtained the right to trade salt to the city, added a chapel to the castle, and contributed to the construction of the town hall. When the Redern family was forced to leave Reichenberg after the Battle of White Mountain (1620), it was acquired by Albrecht von Wallenstein.
    In the 18th century, Reichenberg flourished. The number of inhabitants tripled, and the cloth industry was very booming. The Battle of Reichenberg between Austria and Prussia occurred nearby in 1757 during the Seven Years' War, but the town continued to develop. During the 19th century, the city became the center of the textile industry in the entire Austria-Hungary. In 1850, it became a self-governing city.
    Reichenberg became a prosperous industrial city. In the late 19th century, a spectacular collection of representative buildings was created.
    20th century
    Until 1918, the city was part of Austria-Hungary, the seat of the Reichenberg district, and one of the 94 Bezirkshauptmannschaften in Bohemia.[10] After the end of World War I, Austria-Hungary fell apart, and the Czechs of Bohemia joined newly established Czechoslovakia on 29 October 1918, whilst the Germans wanted to stay with Austria to form reduced German Austria on 12 November 1918, both citing Woodrow Wilson's Fourteen Points and the doctrine of self-determination. Liberec was declared the capital of the German-Austrian province of German Bohemia. Czechs, however, argued that these lands, though German-settled since the Middle Ages, were historically an integral part of the Duchy and Kingdom of Bohemia. On 16 December 1918, the Czechoslovak Army entered Liberec, and the whole province remained part of Bohemia.
    The Great Depression devastated the area's economy with its textile, carpet, glass, and other light industries. The high number of unemployed people, hunger, fear of the future, and dissatisfaction with the Prague government led to the flash rise of the populist Sudeten German Party (SdP), founded by Konrad Henlein, in the suburbs of Liberec. The city became the center of Pan-German movements and later of the Nazis, especially after the 1935 election, despite its crucial democratic mayor, Karl Kostka (German Democratic Freedom Party). The final change came in Summer 1938, after the radicalization of the terror of the SdP, whose death threats forced Kostka and his family to flee to Prague.
    In September 1938, the Munich Agreement awarded the city to Nazi Germany. In 1939, it became the capital of Reichsgau Sudetenland. Most of the city's Jewish and Czech population fled to the rest of Czechoslovakia or were expelled. The important synagogue was burned down. Henlein himself confiscated a villa in Liberec that had belonged to a Jewish businessman, which remained Henlein's home until 1945.
    After World War II, the city again became part of Czechoslovakia, and nearly all of its German population was expelled following the Beneš decrees. The region was then resettled with Czechs.

    Here I go out to sea again
    The sunshine fills my hair
    And dreams hang in the air
    Gulls in the sky and in my blue eye
    You know it feels unfair
    There's magic everywhere
    Look at me standing
    Here on my own again
    Up straight in the sunshine
    No need to run and hide
    It's a wonderful, wonderful life
    No need to laugh and cry
    It's a wonderful, wonderful life
    Sun's in your eyes, the heat is in your hair
    They seem to hate you
    Because you're there
    And I need a friend, oh, I need a friend
    To make me happy
    Not stand here on my own
    Look at me standing
    Here on my own again
    Up straight in the sunshine
    No need to run and hide
    It's a wonderful, wonderful life
    No need to laugh and cry
    It's a wonderful, wonderful life
    I need a friend, oh, I need friend
    To make me happy
    Not so alone
    Look at me here
    Here on my own again
    Up straight in the sunshine
    No need to run and hide
    It's a wonderful, wonderful life
    No need to hide and cry
    It's a wonderful, wonderful life
    No need to run and hide
    It's a wonderful, wonderful life
    No need to run and hide
    It's a wonderful, wonderful life
    Wonderful life
    It's a wonderful life

    I am glad Liberec has retained its historic center and opera house. I had feared it had become very 20th century-style industrialized. It has a beautiful square and clearly entertains its population and visitors.

    Good evening Vladimir and thanks for taking us to Liberec. I have never been there. It has beautiful architecture, very Germanic. The city hall looks like somewhere in Belgium😀 I remember from school that German population prevailed in Liberec until after WW II.

      Very Germanic architecture, because Liberec is located 20 km as the crow flies (14 minutes by car) from the German border. 1,000 years of the Czech lands in the Holy Roman Empire of the German nation must have left its mark on architecture. By the way, from the Middle Ages until 1945 there was a large German population. Germans and Czechs lived well together, then Hitler and the communists ruined everything. Currently, everything is fine again.
