History


In historical records the village was first mentioned in 1274 where it was mentioned as one of the first three townships in Austria-Hungary.

In the village, there is an originally renaissance castle from the start of the 17th century, rebuilt into a baroque style in the 18th century, and at the end of the 19th century, completely rebuilt into a romantic neogothic style. Today, the castle is owned by a descendant of the Thonet family.

During the SNU, there was a base of operations of the rebellion units defending Baťovany (Partizánkse today)
