My Village, My Town - Prušánky

Prušánky is a small village in the edge of Hodonín district. It lies just between two district towns, Hodonín and Břeclav. Prušánky was founded many years ago by German tribe called Prusové. They built a small wooden village called Prusy. But there was a disaster and more than half of houses burnt in the fire. The settlement was recalled as Prusanky, which meant small Prusy. By the developing of Czech language, also this name developed from Prusanky to today’s name Prušánky.
