Hatín is a municipality and village in Jindřichův Hradec District in the South Bohemian Region of the Czech Republic. It has about 300 inhabitants.
The villages of Jemčina and Stajka are administrative parts of Hatín.
The name is derived from the personal name Háta. Háta is a shortened form of Ahata, which is an old Czech variant of the name Agatha.[2]
Hatín is located about 7km (04miles) southwest of Jindřichův Hradec and 34km (21miles) northeast of České Budějovice. Most of the municipal territory lies in the Třeboň Basin, but the eastern part with the villages of Hatín and Stajka lies in the Křemešník Highlands. The highest point is at 512m (1,680feet) above sea level. The area of the Třeboň Basin belongs to the Třeboňsko Protected Landscape Area. The municipal territory is rich in streams.
The first written mention of Hatín is from 1389, when it belonged to the Jindřichův Hradec estate.[3]
There are no railways or major roads passing through the municipality.
The most important monument is the Jemčina Castle. It is a Baroque building with Neoclassical modifications, which served as a hunting lodge. It was built in 1757–1759 on the site of an old stud farm. The castle chapel of St. John of Nepomuk was added in 1769. Next to the castle is a park.[4]
