history

The Meierhof Werdenberg was laid out in the second half of the 17th century by the owner of the Odrau estate , Peter Graf von Werdenberg . Friedrich Carl Johann Amadeus Count Lichnowsky had a part of the Werdenberger Hof parceled out in 1766 and the Werdenberg colony founded. The colony that arose north of the farm along Troppauer Strasse on Dominikalgrund consisted of 24 houses and a tavern. Werdenberg initially belonged to the municipality of Taschendorf , but from 1770 onwards it formed its own local church. The place seal used since that time showed a horse jumping. Because of the prevailing shortly after inflation had Häusler no longer be paid in a position their taxes to the government; Count Lichnowsky therefore threatened to confiscate the land in 1773. Six of the houses had already been abandoned. The house numbering took place in 1781.

In 1834 the Werdenberg colony consisted of 24 small houses in which 182 German-speaking people lived. The main sources of income were agriculture, animal husbandry and fruit growing. There was a farm in the village. The parish was Oderau , and the children were schooled in Lautsch . Werdenberg remained subject to the Oderau minority until the middle of the 19th century .

After the abolition of patrimonial Werdenberg / Vitberk formed a district of the municipality Taschendorf in the judicial district Odrau from 1849 . In 1867 Werdenberg broke away from Taschendorf and formed its own political community. From 1869 Werdenberg belonged to the Troppau district. At that time the village had 235 inhabitants and consisted of 25 houses. In 1886 the dilapidated bell tower was demolished and the chapel was built in its place. At this time Franz Graf von Sickingen acquired the Werdenberger Hof . In 1900, 171 people lived in Werdenberg / Vítberk ; In 1910 there were 192. Due to the increased number of children, a school was built in 1912. In the 1921 census, 157 people lived in the community's 26 houses, including 154 Germans and one Czech. In 1930 Werdenberg consisted of 27 houses and 179 inhabitants; In 1939 there were 185. After the Munich Agreement , the municipality was assigned to the German Reich in 1938 and until 1945 belonged to the Neu Titschein district . After the end of the Second World War, Vítberk came back to Czechoslovakia, most of the German-speaking residents were expelled in 1946 and the village was repopulated. In 1949 the name was changed to Vítovka . In the same year Vítovka was assigned to the newly formed Okres Vítkov, which was repealed in the territorial reform of 1960. In 1950 the village had only 140 inhabitants. From 1961 Vítovka belonged again to the Okres Nový Jičín , at the beginning of 1963 the village was incorporated into Odry . In the 2001 census, 123 people lived in 43 houses in Vítovka. In 2017 the district had 200 inhabitants.
