history
The original name of Štítina was Troubky ( Trupke ). It arose around the former fortress Štítina and, when it was first mentioned in 1282, was owned by the brothers Wok and Jaroslaw von Stettin ( Vok a Jaroslav ze Štítina ), whose descendants Troubky owned until 1370. The Štítina fortress was first mentioned in 1377 when the Duchy of Opava was divided . In 1432, Hartel Tunkl Troubky sold to Čěňek von Tworkau . In 1569 Friedrich von Czettritz acquired the rule of Stettin, who after his death in 1572 was followed by his sons Georg Ulrich and Johann Balthasar, who, however, sold the property again. In 1582–1599, Nikolaus Krawarn von Tvorkov rebuilt the fortress into a Renaissance style castle. The other owners were Messrs. Mosch von Moritsch and von Bock. Since the beginning of the 18th century Troubky / Trupke was called Štítina / Stettin. At the end of the 18th century, Szczecin belonged to the Chorynský of Ledska, who set up a manorial brewery in the chateau. In 1837 Ernst Otto Czeike von Badenfeld sold Stettin to the Teutonic Order . He made it the administrative center of the manor, to which the neighboring Hrabyně also belonged. The castle was subsequently used as an administrative and farm building.
After the abolition of patrimonial Stettin belonged from 1850 with the district Dvořisko / Oppahof to the district administration of Opava, which in 1918 came to the newly founded Czechoslovakia . In 1914 Dvořisko broke away and formed its own political municipality.
After the Munich Agreement in 1938, the place was added to the German Reich and until 1945 belonged to the Troppau district . In the spring of 1945 a tank battle took place between Stettin and Deutsch Krawarn during the Mährisch Ostrauer operation . At the end of April, the Red Army and Czechoslovak units took the place. After the Second World War, Štítina came back to Czechoslovakia in 1945.
In 1974 Nové Sedlice was incorporated, the place became independent again in 1997. Štítina has had a coat of arms and a banner since 1996.
