799 inhabitants. The first tracks of settlement in this location fall in the Neolithic Age.The village itself is mentioned for the first time in 1131 and the first preserved written document from 1263 states that this original ownership of Smil from Střílky devolved to a White Monk monastery in Vizovice. It is said that there were three settlements: Tikov, Lovčice and Přestavlky. The village was in the ownership of Ždánice domain in the 16th century. There used to be a water-mill above the village at the place of today's man-made pond. The picturesque outlook of the village is supported by a St. Peter and Paul church built in a Romanic in 1805. A tradition of carbonization is preserved till present days, although the original piles were replaced by circular steel furnaces. An educational footpath through the Ždánice Forrest hills leads across the village.
