In historical records the village was first mentioned in 1328. It was a majority Hungarian village until after 1920 when the town became part of the newly created Czechoslovakia. In the 1940s (after WWII) Hungarians were forced to leave, (forcibly expelled) and Slovaks were given free homes to occupy. Those who did not leave became assimilated and now consider themselves to be Slovaks.
