The Przemyslids or Přemyslids (Czech: Přemyslovci, German: Premysliden, Polish: Przemyślidzi) were a Bohemian (Czech) royal dynasty which reigned in Bohemia and Moravia (9th century–1306), and parts of Hungary, Silesia, Austria and Poland.

The dynasty's beginnings date back to the 9th century when Przemyslids ruled a tiny territory around Prague, populated by the Czech tribe of the Western Slavs. Gradually they expanded, conquering the region of Bohemia, located in the Bohemian basin where it was not threatened by the expansion of the Frankish Empire. The first historically-documented Premyslid Duke was Bořivoj I (867). In the following century, Přemyslids also ruled over Silesia and founded the city of Wroclaw (German: Breslau), derived from the name of a Bohemian duke Vratislaus I, father of Saint Wenceslaus. Under the reign of Prince Boleslaus I the Cruel (935) and his son Boleslaus II the Pious (972), the Přemyslids ruled territory stretching to today's Belarus.
