Studeněves is a municipality and village in Kladno District in the Central Bohemian Region of the Czech Republic. It has about 500 inhabitants.

Etymology

The name is derived from the personal name Studen, meaning "Studen's village". The initial name of the village was Studena ves.[2][3]

Geography

Studeněves is located about 10 kilometres (6 mi) north of Kladno and 26 km (16 mi) northwest of Prague. It lies in a flat agricultural landscape in the Prague Plateau. The highest point is at 331 m (1,086 ft) above sea level.

History

The first written mention of Studeněves is from 1372.[2] Until 1623, the village was owned by various lower noblemen. In 1623, Studeněves was annexed to the Smečno estate, owned by the Martinic family. After that, the local fortress lost its purpose and was converted into a granary in the 18th century. In the 19th century, there was a large sugar factory in Studeněves, but it ceased to exist in 1929 as a result of the Great Depression.[3]
