In 1628, the first glass factory in Estonia was established in Hüti.[3][4] It was owned by the Swedish military commander and a great Hiiumaa's landowner Jacob De la Gardie. But it closed off in 1664.[3][4]

The village is first mentioned in 1798 (Hütti). Historically, the village was part of Kõrgessaare Manor (German: Hohenholm), and Lauka Manor (German: Lauk).
