Mistřoviceⓘ (Polish: Mistrzowiceⓘ) is a village in Karviná District, Moravian-Silesian Region, Czech Republic.

It was a separate municipality but became administratively a part of Český Těšín in 1975 (together with Mosty and Koňákov).

[2][3] Politically it belonged then to the Duchy of Teschen, a fee of the Kingdom of Bohemia, which after 1526 became part of the Habsburg monarchy.

According to the censuses conducted in 1880, 1890, 1900 and 1910 the population of the municipality dropped from 675 in 1880 to 665 in 1910 with a majority being native Polish-speakers (98%-100%) accompanied by a few Czech-speaking (at most 8 or 1.2% in 1910) and German-speaking people (at most 5 or 0.8% in 1910).

Following the Munich Agreement, in October 1938 together with the Zaolzie region it was annexed by Poland, administratively adjoined to Cieszyn County of Silesian Voivodeship.
