Later the farmers lost their land and became impoverished, so that in 1600 there were 18 houses exclusively inhabited by subjects. The village was initially under the rule of Sharosh Castle and became the property of the Péchy family in the 16th century , who kept their goods in the village until the 20th century. In 1787 the village had 28 houses and 177 inhabitants, in 1828 there were 35 houses and 281 inhabitants who were employed as farmers and forest workers.
