It lies mostly in the Central Elbe Table, only a small part of the municipal territory extends into the East Elbe Table.

History

The first written mention of Tři Dvory is from 1387, when the village was bought by the town of Kolín. With the exception of the years 1547–1555, when the village was owned by the royal chamber, it belonged continuously to the town of Kolín until the establishment of an independent municipality in 1848. In 1690, Tři Dvory burned down after an arson attack, but was soon rebuilt. Until 1848, the village was agricultural, but then industry began to develop in Kolín and many people began to commute to work there.^[2]
