Etymology

Very original name was Seyfersdorf which means Seyfer's village. The name later evolved into Seibersdorf. From 15th century, the place is called Wüst Seibersdorf where the adjectivum "wüst" means "deserted", the village was probably plundered by Hungarian soldiers during Bohemian War. Czech name is a loan translation.


History

The village was probably founded by German settlers. The first note comes from 1382. German citizens were expulsed after WWII and the area was repopulated by Czech people. In 1949, Pusté Žibřidovice has lost its autonomy and was attached to Jindřichov.
