History
The first written mention of Nové Mitrovice is from 1626. At that time, it was a small hamlet called "Hutě", which consisted of 8 cottages and was administered as part of Železný Újezd. From the first half of the 17th century, iron ore was mined in the area. At the end of the 17th century, silver was also mined for a short time. In 1708, the name of "Nové Mitrovice" was mentioned for the first time. The village was renamed after its owners, the noble family of Wratislaw of Mitrovice. The family further developed the mining and iron-processing industry, luring many German immigrants.[2]
After World War II, the municipality of Mítov was merged with Nové Mitrovice. Planiny was incorporated in 1921 and Nechanice in 1976.[3]
