Kuty a city in the Kosów district; on the Czeremosz river and the Bukowina border; it is situated in the mountainous area which is picturesque; 6333 residents, many Jews and Armenians; there is the court of inquiry, a branch of district courts in Kuty and Kossów. The local district court is assigned for 26868 residents. There is a post station which is located on the route (42 km) to Kołomyja (the route leads to Kossów, Pistyń and Jabłonów). There is a building of the Austro-Hungarian revenue office; the Armenian-Catholic deanery of 4 parishes, a local chaiplancy; it unites 3070 souls; a main school building and a girl’s school; a loan society for industrialists and craftsmen with the initial capital of 525 Polish zloty reński. The city was granted the chart of foundation in 1715 by Józef Potocki who was the voivode and the general of the Kiev lands. Jews, who enjoyed many advantages and rights given them by the state, began to settle in Kuty in large numbers and spread over the region as if the land belonged entirely to them. The inspection conducted in 1765 records 166 Polish and Ruthenian landholders, 70 Armenians, 124 Jews, 136 Jewish tenants, 360 houses, an Armenian- and an Orthodox church. Armenians are merchants and they are engaged in saffian manufacture. 3700 persons lived in Kuty in 1849. The city neighbourhood is abundant in salt-springs. Święcki claims the Pokucie region owes its name to the city. The no-town Starosty (starostwo niegrodowe) in the Russian voivodship, in the Halych Land, according to the register by the Treasurers, consisted of the city of Kuty and of the following villages: Kuty Stare, Kobaki, Rybno, Słobódka, Tudiów, Rożen Wielki and Rożen Mały, Roztoki, Białoberezka, Berwinkowa, Chorocowa, Dołhopol, Ilohopol, Hryniowa, Jabłonica, Krasnoiła, Perechresno, Polanki, Stebnie, Fereskul and Uścieryki. In 1771, the Starosty belonged to Ludwika Potocka née Mniszek, the woman who was the wife of a castellan of Cracow. The part of money acquired from the starosty was allocated by her to pay taxes for the maintenance of the Polish regular army in the amount of 19104,11 Polish zloty. The starosty was seized by the Austrian government on May 1, 1782 and it was annexed to the estate of Kosów and Pistyń.
