The first written mention of the village called Wesconewiz dates back to 1220, when Bishop Robert of Olomouc granted the Velehrad Monastery a tithe from the vineyards of Hustanovice. Originally, the village stood a little further east than today, in the Huštenuvka riverbed closer to the Morava river. A new settlement with an elongated village square was founded on a drier site in 1261-1320.


=========================================================

První písemná zmínka o obci s názvem Wesconewiz pochází z roku 1220, kdy olomoucký biskup Robert priznal Velehradskému klášteru desátek z huštenovických vinic. Puvodne ves stávala o neco východneji než dnes, v trati Huštenuvky blíže rece Morave. Nová osada s podlouhlou návsí byla založena na sušším míste v letech 1261–1320.
