Poppice (Popice u Znojma) is located 284 m above sea level. It is designed as a street village. Neighboring towns are German Konitz (Konice) in the north and Kaidling (Havraníky) in the south. Znojmo (Znojmo) is just a few kilometers northeast. To the west, the wooded area of the Thayatal and Narodní park Podyjí borders the village.

History:

Among the donated equipment for the monastery founded in 1190 Bruck as a place first mentioned in documents in 1337, came soon after "Popowicz" to the provost of the cross lords on the Pöltenberg, who held the rule until 1848.

Since 1409, the belonging to the district area Traußnitzmühle ("Trawznycht, quod Situm est super Flumine Dygye") is notarized. During the Hussite Wars Poppitz was completely destroyed in 1434 and the inhabitants moved to Taßwitz (Tasovice).

Since 1500 a separate parish has been found. In 1509, the crusaders gave the peasants 350 ha of hut pasture as a free-lance. This marks the beginning of extensive sheep farming ("Poppitzer sheep"). 1574 was issued by the Order General a municipal code in German. In the Thirty Years' War Poppitz was again badly damaged and 1680 it was extinct by the plague to a few inhabitants.
