history
Motitten was founded by the Teutonic Order as a Hakenzinsdorf .
In 1848 Motitten was a village that belonged to the Preußisch Mark domain rent office (seat: Saalfeld ) within the district of Mohrungen . It housed 206 German-speaking residents in 26 residential buildings, one of whom was Catholic and the rest Protestant. The Protestant Christians belonged to the parish of Weinsdorf .
In 1874, the rural community of Motitten was added to the Gerswalde district in the Mohrungen district. On January 1, 1929, the rural community Bukowitz was incorporated. The community Motitten existed in this form until 1945. It had 165 inhabitants in 1933 and 176 inhabitants in 1939.
After the incorporation into the Polish state, Motitten was renamed Matyty and incorporated into the newly formed Gmina Zalewo. Today the place is the seat of a Schulzenamt of this Gmina without any other associated villages.
The place has a distinctive tourist infrastructure that is geared towards the Geserichsee. This includes various hotels and restaurants and a jetty.
