The village of Štitáre

The village of Štitáre (Scitar) (also Sitar) Chytar, Schitar) has been mentioned in documents since 1113, where there is talk of 4 plows of land as the property of the Zobor monastery-abbey.

The first says that the ancestors named this hill after the leader of the Slavs - Zobor, who was hanged at this place.

The second hypothesis says that the hill is remotely reminiscent of a bison, and another leans towards a name derived from the oldest Benedictine monastery, which was built here (Russian word sobor = monastery, choir of monks).

Its origin dates back to settlements from Great Moravian times.

It is mentioned as early as 1113 in the vicinity of the Zobor monastery.
