history

A barrow complex with 60 barrows in the forest on the Baba to the west of the village documents a Slavic settlement in the 9th century. The place name is derived from the personal name Šebata or Sebestian.

The first written mention of the place was for a long time a certificate of ownership of King Ottokar I. Přemysl for his half-sister Agnes ( Anežka ), abbess of St. George's monastery at Prague Castle , in which u. a. the village of Ševitínska in Prácheňsko was listed. Today it is believed that this mention probably refers to the extinct village of Ševětínsko near Horažďovice . The mention of the village belonging to the Lomnitz rule and the Ševětín parish in the confirmation books of the Archdiocese of Prague and the papal tithe registers from 1356 are considered certain. In 1360 the owner of the manor, Ješek von Kosova Hora , installed the new pastor Jiřík in Ševětín, which he exchanged in 1373 for the Lomnick priest Václav. In 1382 Konrad Kraiger von Kraigk exchanged the rule of Lomnitz with King Wenzel IV for Landstein and Bistritz . During the Hussite Wars , the rule was occupied by the Hussites and administered by Captain Jan Roháč von Dubá . In 1435 Ulrich II von Rosenberg was able to regain the rule of Lomnitz from the hands of the Hussites and added it to his rule in Wittingau . An important medieval trade route ran via Ševětín, the Linzer Straße from Budweis to Prague . In times of war, the place was affected by troop raids and looting. During the reign of George of Podebrady , Ševětín was plundered several times by troops passing through and burned down in 1470. From 1516, the Žďárský rybník and Dubenský rybník ponds were created according to plans by the chief fish master Josef Štěpánek Netolický . Between 1585 and 1596, Šimon Lomnický , who had inherited the Vávra farm and the relaxation area, was the local judge. Under Lomnický, whose poems were also very popular at the Prague court, the Ausspanne on Linzer Strasse was regularly frequented by the Prague and Viennese courts. After the death of Peter Wok von Rosenberg , the Rosenberg inheritance fell to Johann Georg von Schwanberg in 1612 . In 1619 the entire village was burned down by imperial troops. After the Battle of the White Mountain , the goods of Peter von Schwanberg were confiscated because of his participation in the uprising of 1618 and fell to the Habsburgs , who pledged the rule of Wittingau in 1637 to the Polish King Władysław IV. Wasa . During the Thirty Years' War the parish went out. With the support of King Ferdinand III. the ruined church was restored in 1635. At confession in 1659, 54 penitents are listed in Ševětín, which corresponds to the number of residents admitted to penance who had to be older than twelve years. Archduke Leopold Wilhelm of Austria ceded the rule of Wittingau to Johann Adolf I von Schwarzenberg in 1660 . There is evidence of a school since 1666. In 1720, Prince Adam Franz Karl zu Schwarzenberg had a parish again set up and the rectory built in Ševětín under the patronage of the manor. In 1753 the new Kaiserstraße from Prague to Linz was built . In 1787 the cemetery was relocated outside of the village due to an imperial ordinance. However, the new location showed a strong flow of water, so that burials continued around the church. In 1821 the rule built a school.

In 1840 the community Shevetin or Schewietin / Ssewětjn consisted of 40 houses with 416 inhabitants. The parish church, the rectory and a school existed in the village under the patronage of the manor. There was also a retreat in the village. On the other side were the Meierhof Schwanberg ( Švamberk ), a manorial shepherd's farm, a washer's farm, a head threshing house, two rustic houses and the parish chalet. Shevetin was the parish for Witin , Drahotieschitz , Mazalow , Neplachow , Welechwin ( Velechvín ), Kolney ( Kolný , also Kolneg ) and Wlkow . In 1846 a post office was set up in the Ausspannhof. Until the middle of the 19th century, Ševětín was always subject to the Wittingau rule.

After the abolition of patrimonial formed Ševětín / Schewetin 1850 a municipality in the district administration Trebon / Wittingau and the judicial district of Lomnice nad Lužnicí . During this time, the construction of new stone courtyards in peasant baroque style began instead of the old wooden structures. The new school building was inaugurated in 1858. In 1862 the village had 462 mostly Czech-speaking inhabitants. With the commissioning of the railway from Budweis to Wesely , the place received a stop in 1874. Since 1873, the Kopanina quarry has delivered 30 wagons with granodiorite every day for railway construction. In 1884, Ševětín was given the privilege of holding a daily grain and cattle market. However, this did not result in a survey of the market town. In 1882 a suitable place for a new cemetery was found and the old cemetery at the church was closed. The voluntary fire brigade was founded in 1891. In 1907, a memorial plaque for Šimon Lomnický von Budeč was placed on the inn. In 1910 there were 713 Czech-speaking residents in the village. After the hailstorm of June 10, 1916 also caused enormous damage in the Mojský les and Velechvínské polesí forest areas between Nemanice, Úsilné , Bída and Ševětín, Prince Johann zu Schwarzenberg had great difficulty in recovering the windbreak. Because of the war there was a shortage of men, horses and wagons. Therefore, between 1917 and 1918, he had two narrow-gauge forest railways built from the České Budějovice – Veselí nad Lužnicí railway line. One of them led from Ševětín to the Velechvínské polesí. Development as a holiday resort began in the 1920s. In 1922 a permanent post office and police station was established in the village. In 1926 it was connected to the electricity and telephone network. In 1940 the community school started teaching. After the lifting of the Okres Třeboň, Ševětín was assigned to the Okres České Budějovice in 1961. On September 20, 1973, Vitín was incorporated again . On July 1, 1975 Drahotěšice , Chotýčany , Vlkov and Radonice were districts of Ševětín. In 1975 the Blata singing and dancing ensemble was established and in 1979 the cultural center was opened. The inn burned down in 1985 and was then demolished. After referendums, all districts broke away from Ševětín on November 24, 1990. In 2008 Ševětín was raised to Městys and is the only place so far that has gained this status.
