The first written mention of Chotětov is from 1057, when Duke Spytihněv II donated the village to the newly established Litoměřice Chapter. After the town of Bělá pod Bezdězem was founded in 1337, it became property of the town. From 1587 until the establishment of independent municipal administration in 1850, Chotětov was part of the Brandýs estate. Construction of the railway was finished in 1865, which started the development of the village. In 1908, Chotětov was promoted to a market town.[4]
