history

Votín was first mentioned in a document in 1379. At that time, part of the village belonged to the Meziříčí rule . The local Freihof and the Stránecká Zhoř estate owned further shares. In 1398 Jan von Bendín sold the Freihof. The other owners were the Čermák family, who later called themselves von Votín. You came from Ondřej Kocour of Votín, who was executed on June 21, 1621 in Prague's old town by Jan Mydlář .

Interest income from the part belonging to Stránecká Zhoř was later bought by Ondřej von Pyšel. In 1568 the Freihof was described as desolate. The Meziříč part of Votín was the seat of an emperor. The tripartite division of the village existed until 1848. After the abolition of patrimonial rule, the political municipality Votín was established in the district administration Velké Meziříčí in 1850. To Votin belonged at that time the outlying dried hut and the bastion Křekovec. The municipality has been called Otín since 1924 . At the beginning of 1961 Otín was assigned to the Okres Žďár nad Sázavou and at the same time Geršov and Pohořílky, who had previously belonged to Pavlínov , incorporated.
