| Description | The period after 1848 is useally connected in literature with gradual introduction of political freedom and emancipation of municipalities. Miroslav used to be the seat of the manor, but the manor was turned into a farm estate and Miroslav changed into a developing town and with blooming infrastructure, rich social life in clubs and associations a plans fot the future. Thanks to the political and trading contracts, the town livelily communicated with near neighbours as well as with Brno and Vienna customers buying the local renowned products. This trend was enabled mainly by the gradual emanicipation of the local tradesmen, both smaller and big ones. Miroslav as the second largest town of the Moravský Krumlov district was become a natural centre fot the close neighbourhood. The fact that there wereboth Jewish and Evangelic independent communities proves Miroslav´s importance. The nearly village of Pemdorf became a part of Miroslav´Christian community in 1899 as well as Václavov in 1907. In 1867, the religious Jewish community was officially separated from the political one. Therefore, there were two political communities in Miroslav, the Christian and the Jewish ones. |
