Miletín is a town in Jičín District in the Hradec Králové Region of the Czech Republic. It has about 900 inhabitants.

The name is derived from the personal name Milata, meaning "Milata's (court)".

Miletín is located about 23 kilometres (14 mi) east of Jičín and 23 km (14 mi) northwest of Hradec Králové.

The first written mention of Miletín is from 1124. From 1241 to 1410, it was property of the Teutonic Order, then the owners often changed. Among the most notable owners were the Waldstein family. In 1560, Miletín was promoted to a town. In 1846, the almost entire town burned down and had to be rebuilt.

Among the main landmarks of the town is the Church of the Annunciation of the Virgin Mary. It was built in the Gothic style in the 13th century using material from a Teutonic Order commandery. In 1899, after the church was damaged by the 1846 fire, it was rebuilt in the neo-Gothic style. Next to the church is a separate bell tower.

The Miletín Castle was built in the early Baroque style in 1693, on the site of an old medieval castle. It was rebuilt and a fire in 1699. In the 19th century, it was completely reconstructed. Today it houses the Museum of Czech Amateur Theatre. The castle is surrounded by an English park, founded in 1881.

In the middle of the town square are a large monument of the writer Karel Jaromír Erben (who is the most famous local native) dating from 1892, and a sculptural group of St. George from 1901.
