history

The place name is derived from the Old High German personal name "Diotwin".

Dietweis was first mentioned in a document in 1369, became a cadastral municipality in 1784 and initially joined the political municipality of Eberweis in 1850 with 106 inhabitants at that time and became a separate political municipality through the separation in 1925. In 1934 the place had 150 and 1939 129 inhabitants.

A new chapel was inaugurated in 1890, a new bell in 1933 and renovated in 1954 and 1964 to 1966.

As early as 1939 the place was to be incorporated into Heidenreichstein, but this failed due to the resistance of the population. The amalgamation with the communities of Eggern , Reinberg-Litschau and Reinberg-Heidenreichstein was also rejected in 1967.

On January 1, 1970, it was finally merged with the municipality of Heidenreichstein on the basis of a municipal council resolution. In 2001, 145 people lived in the village.
