From the Gyor-Moson-Sopron County Atlas:
"The area was already populated in the Stone ages. According
to a document from 1237 the village was owned by the Benedict
Abbacy of Szent Márton and later by the Bishop of Gyor from 1329
to 1848. The village was demolished by the Turkish troops in 1526
and became unpopulated. Repopulation of the village was begun in
1664. It has a population of 2406 persons. Interesting sights
are: Baroque style Roman Catholic church from the eighteenth
century"
