Kyšice is a municipality and village in Kladno District in the Central Bohemian Region of the Czech Republic. It has about 600 inhabitants.
The name is derived from the personal name Kych, meaning "the village of Kych's people".[2]
Kyšice is located about 5km (03miles) south of Kladno and 15km (09miles) west of Prague. It lies in an agricultural landscape in the Křivoklát Highlands. The highest point is the hill Vinohrádek at 430m (1,410feet) above sea level. There are two fishponds in the municipal territory.
The first written mention of Kyšice is from 1316. The village was founded near a fortress that allegedly existed as early as 1249. It was owned by various lower noblemen. In the 17th century, it became part of the Červený Újezd estate and shared its owners and destiny.[3]
There are no railways or major roads passing through the municipality.
The main landmark of Kyšice is the Chapel of Saint Florian from 1863. Next to the chapel is a crucifix from 1888.[3]
