History
The first written mention of Přestavlky is from 1228. Around 1400, Lords of Dubá acquired the village. In 1428, Přestavlky was bought by Perchta of Kravaře. In the following years, the village often changed owners. In the middle of the 15th century, the royal chamber donated the village to Zdeněk Kostka of Postupice, who annexed it to the Čejchanov estate (later known as Komorní Hrádek estate). From that time until the abolishment of serfdom in 1848, Přestavlky belonged to the Komorní Hrádek estate and shared its owners.Demographics
