Villages of Hrozová and Matějovice are administrative parts of Rusín.
Geographyedit
Rusín is located about 31 kilometres (19 mi) northeast of Bruntál and 55 km (34 mi) northwest of Ostrava. The municipality is situated in the Osoblažsko microregion on the border of with Poland. It lies in the Zlatohorská Highlands. The highest point is the hill Rusínký kopec at 314 m (1,030 ft) above sea level.
The Hrozová stream, a tributary of the Osoblaha, forms the Czech-Polish border, then flows across the territory, and then forms a part of the northwestern municipal border.
Historyedit
The first written mention of Rusín is in the will of Vok of Rosenberg from 1262. In 1331, Rusín was bought by Heinek of Głubczyce and annexed to the Głubczyce estate. He owned the village for about 20 years. After his death, Rusín was inherited by the Lords of Fullstein, who annexed it to the Fullstein estate and owned it in the following centuries.[2]
The landmark of the Hrozová village is the parish Church of Saint Michael the Archangel. The church was first mentioned in 1309 and is as old as the village. The church was modified several times, but the core is an early Gothic building from the 13th century. The Baroque windows are from 1758. In 2013, extraordinarily large frescoes were unveiled in the church. It is a painting from the last third of the 13th century, and is one of the most important late Romanesque frescoes in the country.[5]
The Chapel of the Virgin Mary on the Rusínský kopec was built in 1816 and has become a pilgrimage site. After it was destroyed in 1945, a replica was built on its original site in the 1990s, which again became a pilgrimage site.[2]
The Matějovice Cave is a pseudokarst cave located in the sandstone rock close to Matějovice. The passage is 16 metres (52 ft) long and 3–4 metres high.[6]
