Lehnice (German Legendorf , Hungarian Lég ) is a municipality in the Okres Dunajská Streda des Trnavský kraj in southwest Slovakia , with 2851 inhabitants (December 31, 2019) .
geography
The municipality is located in the middle of the Great Schüttinsel , a river island of the Danube , which is part of the Slovak Danube lowlands , and is 13 kilometers from the town of Dunajská Streda .
history
Lehnice was created in 1940, at that time still under the Hungarian name Lég (see First Vienna Arbitration Award ), through the amalgamation of the following places: Malý Lég (Hungarian Kislég ), Veľký Lég ( Nagylég ) and Sása ( Szász ). In 1951, today's municipality Blahová was spun off and in 1960 Masníkovo (until 1948 Slovak "Predná Potôň", Hungarian Előpatony ) incorporated.
The first written mention comes from the year 1239, as Legu . The division of the main town of Lég into two parts has been known since the early 14th century.
