Bystřice (district de Frýdek-Místek)
Résumé
(, Bistrzitz) is a municipality and village in Frýdek-Místek District in the Moravian-Silesian Region of the Czech Republic. It has about 5,300 inhabitants, which makes it the most populated municipality in the country without the town status. The municipality has a significant Polish minority.
The name is derived from the Slavic word bystry, bystrý, i.e. "fast, rapid" (flow of a river or stream).
Bystřice is located about east of Frýdek-Místek and southeast of Ostrava. It lies in the historical region of Cieszyn Silesia. The Hluchová Creek flows to the Olza River in the municipality. The southwestern part of the municipality lies in the Jablunkov Furrow and the southeastern part in the Silesian Beskids. In the north the territory extends into the Moravian-Silesian Foothills. The highest point of the municipality is near the peak of Loučka, at above sea level.
Bystřice was probably founded at the turn of the 14th and 15th centuries. The first written mention of Bystřice is in a deed of Bolesław I, Duke of Cieszyn from 1423. Politically it belonged to the Duchy of Teschen. By the end of the 15th century, the first stage of colonization took place. Forests were cut down, fields established, and cattle breeding and pastoralism began.
After the 1540s Reformation prevailed in the Duchy of Teschen and a local Catholic church was taken over by Lutherans. Local Protestants built there a wooden church in 1587. It was taken from them (as one from around fifty buildings) in the region by a special commission and given back to the Roman Catholic Church on 21 March 1654. In spite of being bereft of place of worship many of the local inhabitants remained to be Lutherans. After issuing the Patent of Toleration in 1781 they subsequently organized a local Lutheran parish as one of over ten in the region.
Settlers have lived mainly off farming and pastures. After the construction of Třinec Iron and Steel Works in 1839, some of villagers went to work there.
After Revolutions of 1848 in the Austrian Empire a modern municipal division was introduced in the re-established Austrian Silesia.
