history
Drnava was first mentioned in writing as Dwrnew in 1364 , but it originated as a mining settlement sometime in the 13th or 14th century. Initially, the village was part of the estate of Tornau Castle , in the early modern times of Krásna Hôrka Castle and thus also of the Bebek family and finally Andrássy. In 1828 there were 105 houses and 839 inhabitants who were employed in the mines and ironworks.
The first ironworks were established as early as the 18th century, but there was an upturn in the 19th century. In 1821 there were four iron furnaces and four hammer mills here, later replaced by blast furnaces, which gradually merged into what was then a modern iron mill. Among other things, it supplied components for the Chain Bridge in Budapest . In the 1840s around 250 workers were employed there, and in the 1850s the plant produced a few thousand tons of iron. The ironworks stopped working before the dissolution of Austria-Hungary .
Until 1918/1919, the place in Gemer and Kleinhont counties (until 1881 in Torna counties ) belonged to the Kingdom of Hungary and then became part of Czechoslovakia and now Slovakia. From 1938 to 1945 he was once again part of Hungary on the basis of the First Vienna Arbitration .
