History
It was first mentioned in a Serbian charter dating to 1315. In a charter of Emperor Stephen Uroš IV Dušan, dating to 1348, Mušutište, along with the churches of Virgin Hodegetria and St. Symeon (Sv. Simeona), were granted (metochion) to the Saint Archangels Monastery in Prizren.
The mass abduction in Mušutište was a war crime against the Serb civilian population in Mušutište.[3] The abduction occurred on 12 June 1999, when Albanian soldiers attacked Mušutište and kidnapped 18 Serb civilians.[3] According to Human Rights Watch, among the victims were twelve men, five women and one five-year-old girl.[4]
