After the reinstatement to the Rosenbergs, in replacement of older privileges lost during the Hussite wars, the right of escheat was upheld to the town on 30.11. 1437, by Oldrich of Rozmberk. In 1481 King Vladislav Jagellon granted the town the right to hold markets twice a year, especially with cattle, which were taking place here until the 40s of the last century.
