Nučice is a municipality and village in Prague-West District in the Central Bohemian Region of the Czech Republic. It has about 2,400 inhabitants.

The initial name of the village was Vnučice. It was derived from the personal name Vnuk, meaning "the village of Vnuk's people".

Nučice is located about 7 kilometres (4 mi) west of Prague. Most of the municipal territory, including the Nučice village, lies in a flat agricultural landscape of the Prague Plateau. The southwestern part extends into the Hořovice Uplands and the northwestern part extends into the Křivoklát Highlands. The highest point is at 424 m (1,391 ft) above sea level.

The first written mention of Nučice is from 1037. In 1295, King Wenceslaus II donated the village to the Metropolitan Chapter at Saint Vitus in Prague. Nučice was the site of a fortress, which was destroyed during the Hussite Wars. After the Hussite Wars, Nučice was acquired by the Lords of Kladno. They owned the village until 1540. After 1580, Nučice was annexed to the Červený Újezd estate.

In 1845, iron ore began to be mined near Nučice. At the end of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century, mining developed and caused the growth of the village and an influx of new residents.
