History[2]
It is the ancient estate of the Győr family, which passed to another owner during the 1346 class . In 1337 it already had a parish. In 1536 , the widows of previous landlords became the owners of the village. In the Turkish treasury tax register of 1563, it's listed with only one house. In 1574, it consisted of 5 houses, and in 1580, 3 houses. Around 1701, it was owned by the Doby family, and before 1710, by the Simaházy family. In 1715, 14 households were registered in it. In 1752, Antal Somssich received a royal donation for it, along with the other estates and the surname Saárdi. Currently, Miklós Sárdi Somssich has the larger estate there. On Apr. 1801, the village was granted a patent to hold national fairs.
The Somssich Castle in the village was built in the middle of the 18th century. It contains a library of about 3,000 volumes, many valuable old furniture, tapestries, etc. The Roman Catholic family church dates from 1757.
