Metylovice used to be a village in which the leather handicraft prevailed since the 17th century, changing the location's nature at all. The sudden and in fact unexpected decline of leather belt production and group of belt producers meant a great change in the appearance and structure of the village. Metylovice lost its regional exclusiveness and it blended with the nature of surrounding villages to a certain extent.

It resulted in a strong relation to the past reality within a complicated process of forgetting and remembering in the course of the past fifty to sixty years.
