History

The first mention of Slavkovice dates back to 1264, when the burgrave Bohuslav of Lichtenburg bequeathed the village to Žďár Monastery upon his death.

In 1830, a local village school was established in house no. 5. A dedicated school building was constructed in 1838.

From 1850 to 1905 Veselíčko (now part of Žďár nad Sázavou) was administered as part of Slavkovice and shared its school.

Between 1966 and 1970, uranium ore was mined near the village.

Since 1980, it has been a municipal part of Nové Město na Moravě.[2]
