history

The first written mention of the village of Pytyn , which belonged to the Světlov domain , was on January 9, 1412 as a property of the Sternbergs . 1418 put Eliška Světlovská von Sternberg Jaroslav von Sternberg as co-owner. After his death in the battle of Vyšehrad , Eliška sold the rule to the future emperor Sigismund in 1420 . After his death, his widow Barbara von Cilli became the owner of Světlov. From the possession of the Bohemian Crown, the rule came to Heinrich von Leipa and finally to the Hungarian robber baron Pankraz von Svätý Mikuláš . After this became a nuisance, the Moravian estates bought the castles Engelsberg and Světlov and sold them to Burian von Vlčnov. In the power struggles between Georg von Podiebrad and Matthias Corvinus , the castles Starý Světlov and Engelsberg were destroyed and remained desolate. Ctibor von Landstein had the Nový Světlov castle built near Bojkovice as the seat of the rule . In 1512 the place was referred to as Spitín and in 1552 as Piitin . In 1563 Friedrich Tettauer von Tettau ( Bedřich Tetour z Tetova ) left the corridors of the desert Měřínsko to the residents of the village in return for an annual contribution in kind to oats as well as the performance of labor services on his Nový Světlov farm. In the manorial land register from 1598 48 properties and two mills are shown for Pitín. The Counts of Kaunitz belonged to the other owners . In 1663 the place was burned down by the Turks and eleven residents were murdered. Other forms of the name are from 1670 Pitiniow , 1718 Spitinov and from 1846 Pittin and Pitín . There is evidence of a parish school in Pitín since 1834. Until the middle of the 19th century, Pitín remained subject to the Světlov rule.

After the abolition of patrimonial Pytín / Pittin formed from 1850 a municipality in the district administration Uherský Brod . In the second half of the 19th century the road from Bojkovice via Pitín to Hrádek na Vlárské dráze was built. The Wlara Railway was built between 1883 and 1887 and laid out above the village of the Pitín station. In 1888 the railway started operating. In 1899 the road from Pitín to Hostětín was built. Since the end of the 19th century, the place name Pitín has prevailed. A new school building was built in 1902. In 1912 a train stop was set up because of the unfavorable location of the train station in the south-western part of the village. The station was later abandoned and a transfer point was set up in its place. Up until the 1930s, three watermills were operated on the Olšava: Pavlacký mlýn, Spáčilův mlýn and Pípalův mlýn. After the dissolution of the Okres Uherský Brod, Pitín came to the Okres Uherské Hradiště in late 1960 . Between 1964 and 1990 Hostětín was incorporated.

Pitín is located in the CHKO Bílé Karpaty Nature Park, which has existed since 1980 and has been a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve since 1996. The area has been nominated as a NATURA 2000 protected area since 2004. On March 22, 2010, Prince Charles visited Pitín.
