Mochov is a municipality and village in Prague-East District in the Central Bohemian Region of the Czech Republic. It has about 1,600 inhabitants.
The name is derived from the personal name Moch, meaning "Moch's (court)".
Mochov is located about east of Prague. It lies in a flat agricultural landscape in the Central Elbe Table. The Výmola Stream flows through the municipality.
The first written mention of Mochov is from 1360. From 1437 to 1611, the village belonged to the PÃ Âerov estate. Then Emperor Rudolf II sold Mochov to Magdalena TrÃÂka of LÃÂpa, who joined it to the Kounice estate. It remained part of this estate until the establishment of an independent municipality in 1850.
The D11 motorway (part of the European route E67) from Prague to Hradec Králové passes through the municipality.
The main landmark of Mochov is the Church of Saint Bartholomew. It is originally a late Gothic church from the 13th century, which was later rebuilt in the Baroque style.
