History
During the Kamakura period, Satte developed as a post town on the Kamakura Kaidō, and maintained that role through the Edo period with the Nikkō Kaidō and the Nikkō Onari Kaidō.
The town of Satte was created within Kitakatsushika District, Saitama with the establishment of the modern municipalities system on April 1, 1889. It was raised to city status on October 1, 1986. Discussions to merge with neighboring Kuji and Washimiya in 2004 resulted in the selection of a new city name of Sakuranomiya (桜宮市), but the merger never took place.
