history

Dolný Štál was first mentioned in writing in 1113 as villa Staul (other sources only speak of 1255). It belonged to the Pressburg Castle as a royal property . The name is probably derived from the Hungarian word istálló (= stable), as royal stables were once located here. From the 14th century until the end of serfdom in the 19th century, the village was predominantly inhabited by members of the nobility.

Until 1919 all places in Pressburg County belonged to the Kingdom of Hungary and then came to Czechoslovakia. Through the First Vienna Arbitration , they came back to Hungary for the period from 1938 to 1945. 1940 the places Horný Štál (Hungarian Felistál ) and Tône (Hungarian Tőnye ) were incorporated.

From 1948 to 1990 the village was named Hroboňovo in honor of the Slovak poet Samo Bohdan Hroboň .
