Vysočany is a part of Prague in the Prague 9 administrative district (partly in Prague 3), Czech Republic. It lies in the eastern part of Prague around the valley of the Rokytka River.
The first recorded information about Vysočany was from 1115 when Duke Vladislav I. gave Vysočany vineyards to the Kladruby monastery.
In 1896, Emil Kolben, a crucial Czech engineer and entrepreneur (former employee and friend of Thomas Edison), founded its factory, which later became famous as ČKD. This strongly influenced Vysočany as a heavily industrial district of Prague.
In 1902, the emperor Franz Joseph I of Austria awarded Vysočany the city title and the right to use its coat of arms.
1911 - Vysočany Town Hall was built
In 1922 - Vysočany became part of Prague.
In 1939 - after the Nazi invasion of Prague. The majority of industrial production had to be refocused on military production to support the Nazi-Germany war.
In 1942 - several families from Vysočany were involved in Operation Anthropoid (assassination of Reinhard Heydrich)
In 1945 - during the end of World War II, the district was heavily damaged during the Bombing of Prague. The targets were factories that were forced to produce military material.
In 1968 - after the invasion of Russian armies - there was a special convention of the Czechoslovak Communist Party held in Vysočany, which strongly condemned the invasion of the Soviet troops.
Since the 1990s - the new era after the Velvet Revolution saw Vysočany transforming from a heavily industrial district to a new modern residential part of Prague. A big part of construction is focused on the "brown-fields" after former factories.
