History
Until 1918, the Eipel - Úpice town was part of the Austrian monarchy (Austria side after the compromise of 1867), in the Trautenau - Trutnov district, one of the 94 Bezirkshauptmannschaften in Bohemia.[2] A post-office was opened in 1860.
Twin towns — sister cities
Úpice is twinned with:
gollark: I bet most DC players never actually get fancy stuff like CB golds.
gollark: For some reason there's a 1d2h gold on the trade hub.
gollark: The names you expect to be free never are. The names you expect won't be occasionally are.
gollark: I mostly just bank on not really needing specific genders, and/or the numbers evening out over time.
gollark: Zero pinks, actually.
