Rackschitz (Jihomoravský kraj, Czech Republic)
Rackschitz (Rakschitz), a Bruderhof of the Hutterian Brethren near Kromau in Moravia, was founded in 1545 by the purchase of a house. At this time the village belonged to the baron of Lipa-Kromau. Johann von Lipa, who came from a line noted for its tolerance, accepted the Brethren on his estate.
