The community is located in the Slovakian Danube lowlands , more precisely in the south-eastern part of the Great Schüttinsel . The center of the village lies at an altitude of 115 m nm and is six kilometers from Veýký Meder and 27 kilometers from Komárno .
Neighboring municipalities are Sokolce in the north, Bodzianske Lúky in the northeast, Lipové in the east, Tôň in the south and Holiare in the west.
history
Today's community emerged from two separate places Hradná Bodza (Hungarian Várbogya ) and Zemianska Bodza (Hungarian Nemesbogya ) until the 18th century . The first mentioned place was mentioned in writing for the first time in 1268 and was at that time the property of Komorn Castle. Zemianska Bodza was first mentioned in writing in 1387 as villa nobilium de Bogya and, as the name suggests, was owned by the lower nobility. A bridge toll was levied there. In the 19th century the community had a total of 14 different landlords, but was often hit by floods.
Until 1918/1919 the place in Komorn County belonged to the Kingdom of Hungary and then came to Czechoslovakia or now Slovakia. As a result of the First Vienna Arbitration Award , it was once again part of Hungary between 1938 and 1945.
The Danube flood in 1965 caused considerable damage in Bodza. In 1971 the neighboring community of Holiare was incorporated. In 1990, when part of the municipality was split off, the new municipality of Bodzianske Lúky was created, and Holiare has been an independent municipality again since 1994.
