History
In historical records, the village was first recorded in 1230 as "Vzor".
Until the end of World War I, it was part of Hungary and fell within the Somorja district of Pozsony County. After the Austro-Hungarian army disintegrated in November 1918, Czechoslovakian troops occupied the area. After the Treaty of Trianon of 1920, the village became officially part of Czechoslovakia. In November 1938, the First Vienna Award granted the area to Hungary and it was held by Hungary until 1945. After Soviet occupation in 1945, Czechoslovakian administration returned and the village became officially part of Czechoslovakia in 1947.
As a part of a forced population exchange initiated by Czechoslovakia, approximately one third of the village’s Hungarian population was expulsed to Hungary by Czechoslovakian authorities and were replaced by ethnic Slovaks from southern-Hungary.
