Kocourov is a small village and a part of the town Horà ¡ovský Týn in the Domaà ¾lice District, the Czech Republic. It is located about 2 km north of Horà ¡ovský Týn on Kà Âakovský Creek, and has 11 registered addresses. As of 2011, the village had a population of 29 residents. According to AntonÃÂn Profous, the name, which is reminiscent of the Czech word for cat (in Czech kocour), comes from the designation of the Kocour's manor, that is, a manor that belonged to a person named Kocour or Koczur.
Kocourov is located north of the town of Horà ¡ovský Týn, on the road from Horà ¡ov to DolnàMetelsko. The built-up part of the village is located to the east of this road between the road itself and the forest. Kocourov cadastre also includes solitude, which is accessible from road number II/193 in the east of the cadastre, west of Podraà ¾nice.
Kocourov consists of several buildings, through the center of which an asphalt road runs from east to west, and the Kà Âakovský Stream flows from north to south. From the main road, the asphalt road slopes down into the valley to that stream. There is a pond and the chapel of the Sacred Heart. Near the turn to the village, there is a bus stop Horà ¡ovský Týn, Kocourov on the main road. A yellow tourist route passes through Kocourov, going from DolnàMetelsko along an asphalt road, and beyond Kocourov, continuing through the Kocourovský Forest along the Kà Âakovský Stream to Horà ¡ovský Týn.
The first written mention of the village dates back to 1542. At that time it belongs to Horà ¡ovský Týn. During the 19th and 20th centuries, the village was alternately part of other municipalities and was itself a municipality under which other settlement units fell (1921âÂÂ1950). Around 1870, there was a brick factory in the village. It has been part of the city of Horà ¡ovský Týn since 1969.
