history
It is believed that the place was founded around the year 1300. The first source evidence is from 1365; In 1401 he was recorded as Lekardhaza . Later the place belonged to the monastery of Leles and also to the family of the Drugeths . In the Kingdom of Hungary the place was in Ung County , which existed until 1918 , in the newly formed Czechoslovakia in the Carpathian Ukraine (Slovak Podkarpatoruská zem ) or before in Slovakia . For a short time it was part of Slovakia after the dissolution of Czechoslovakia , after the occupation in the course of the Slovak-Hungarian War Lekárovce was annexed by Hungary from 1939 to 1945 and after the end of the Second World War (the place was already on November 22, 1944 the Red Army conquered) the place came to the USSR , because administratively it belonged to Carpathian Ukraine before the war, which had now been incorporated into the Ukrainian SSR . On the basis of a petition by the residents, however, the place was again assigned to Czechoslovakia and on April 4, 1946 it became part of it again (to be found under the number 81/1946 Sb.).
