Tištín is a market town in Prostějov District in the Olomouc Region of the Czech Republic. It has about 500 inhabitants.
The oldest written form of the name is Ciesczyn. The name was derived from the personal name Částa and by gradual distortion it evolved into Tištín.[2]
Tištín is located about south of Prostějov and 31km (19miles) south of Olomouc. It lies in an agricultural landscape in the Litenčice Hills. The Tištinka Stream flows through the market town.
The first written mention of Tištín is in a donation deed of King John of Bohemia from 1327. It 1390, Tištín was already referred to as a market town. During the Thirty Years' War, Tištín was badly damaged and depopulated. It became a village again, but in 1676, it was again promoted to a market town.[2]
The D1 motorway from Brno to Ostrava runs along the northern municipal border.
The main landmark of Tištín is the Church of Saints Peter and Paul. It was built in the Baroque style in the 18th century. Next to the church is the former chapel of Saint Joseph.[3]
