Nezabudice was probably founded around 1108. The first written mention of Nezabudice is from 1115, when Duke Vladislaus I donated the village to the monastery in Kladruby. However, in 1250, the village was listed as a property of the monastery in Plasy. After the exchange of properties between the nobility and the monastery in 1332, Nezabudice became part of the Křivoklát estate.In the first half of the 16th century, Nezabudice experienced its greatest boom. After the plague epidemic in 1568 and the Thirty Years' War, the population decreased. Further plague epidemics affected the village in 1680 and 1713. At the end of the 17th century, Nezabudice was acquired by the Waldstein family. In 1756, the entire Křivoklát estate was inherited by the Fürstenberg family.
