history

Church of the Birth of Mary in the village

The place was first mentioned in writing in 1468 as Nyarad and was owned by the Dóczy family , in the 16th century Czobor , Dersffy , Kamarjay and Illésházy ; the last landlords came from the Batthyány family . A record of the Raab County from 1646 shows that at that time Nyárad had no judge for over 50 years. In 1828 there were 67 houses and 430 inhabitants, whose main source of income was agriculture. In 1850 a flood caused severe damage to the village.

The place in Raab County belonged to the Kingdom of Hungary until 1919 and then came to Czechoslovakia or now Slovakia. 1938-45 he was again in Hungary due to the First Vienna Arbitration .

The place name is derived from the Hungarian name nyár (Sg.) For poplars ; the Csiliz came only in the 20th century to better distinguish the place from other places of the same name in the Kingdom of Hungary and indicates the landscape of Csilizköz (Slovak Medzičiližie ).
