The present municipality was created in 1960 through the merger of the places Martinová (Hungarian Zsitvamártonfalu - until 1907 Mártonfalu ) and Vajka nad Žitavou (Hungarian Vajk ). Both remain cadastral communities to this day.
Martinová was first mentioned in writing as Martonfalva in 1437, when the royal estate was leased to the Ludányi family. In 1554 the village was set on fire and destroyed by the Turks. In the 16th century the village was owned by the Solymosi , Ghyczy families , and Botka , Kéres , Nagy and others in the 18th and 19th centuries . In 1750 32 families lived in Martinová, in 1828 there were 57 houses and 399 inhabitants, whose main source of income was agriculture.
Vajka nad Žitavou was mentioned in writing for the first time in 1113 as Wochoi and belonged to the dominions of the monastery at Zobor and the castle Szolgagyőr (Slov. Posádka) near Dvorníky . In 1286 the village came under the Hungarian crown, after which it was part of the estate of the Gýmeš castle near Jelenec until the 17th century . The local toll booth is mentioned in 1386 and 1424; in the 16th century, part of the town was affected by the Turks.
