Until 1383, the village was divided into three parts with different owners; among the most important owners were the Lords of Kravaře and Lords of Cimburk. In 1383, the Augustinian monastery in Lanškroun bought all the parts. The monastery owned Nezamyslice until the abolishment of the monastery in 1784. In 1813 Count Segur purchased the village. From 1819 until the establishment of an independent municipality in 1848, Nezamyslice was a property of Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria.^[2]
