Watermill on the Little Danube

The municipality is located in the Slovakian Danube lowlands on the Little Danube , partly on the river island Žitný ostrov . The center of the village lies at an altitude of 114  m nm and is ten kilometers from Dunajská Streda and 19 kilometers from Galanta .

history

The place was mentioned in writing for the first time in 1539 as Eperyes and first belonged to the estate of Schintau , later of Lanschütz . In 1553 there are 10 portals , in 1828 95 houses and 679 inhabitants. The majority of the inhabitants were employed in agriculture, smaller parts were carters and millers. As part of the revolution of 1848/49 , a battle between imperial troops and Hungarian Honvéden took place at the site in 1849.

Until 1918/19 the place in Pressburg County belonged to the Kingdom of Hungary and then came to Czechoslovakia , or today Slovakia. The exception is the time from the First Vienna Arbitration in 1938 to 1945, when the place once again belonged to Hungary.

In 1948 the Hungarian-sounding name Eperjes was changed to the Slovak Jahodná (Slov. Jahoda = Hungarian eper , in German strawberry).

1960–1990 the neighboring village of Dunajský Klátov was part of the municipality.
