history

Various finds, including a bronze ax, prove that the place was settled in the Young and Late Bronze Ages . The first written mention of Ústí took place in 1503 in the course of the sale of the Vsetín and Rožnov estates by Count Peter von St. Georgen and Bösing to the five brothers from Kunstadt . The village in the Senice Valley, through which a trade route from Poland to Hungary had passed since the 14th century, was possibly one of the unnamed goods that Protiv von Doubravice had given to the master of the Templar order Ekko. Until the abolition of patrimonial rule in 1848, Ústí always belonged to the Vsetín rule. In 1666 the village had 121 inhabitants. In 1850 there were 436 who lived in 64 houses. In 1892 the Senice was regulated. At the turn of the 20th century, the population of Ústí fell in the wake of several waves of emigration overseas. In 1900 there were 414 people in the village.

In 1972 the Senice flooded parts of the village. In 1979 a train with dangerous goods tank wagons derailed on the railway line to Horní Lideč near Ústí, this accident prompted the construction of a waterworks, which was completed in 1993. On January 1, 1975 it was incorporated into Vsetín, and since the beginning of 1992, Ústí has ​​been a municipality again.
