Until 1919, the place in Pressburg County belonged to the Kingdom of Hungary and then came to Czechoslovakia or now Slovakia. 1938-45 he was again in Hungary due to the First Vienna Arbitration .
In 1948, the place previously called Béke was first named in honor of the Slovak historian Juraj Sklenár (1744–1790) "Sklenárovo" (also means sklenár in German glassmaker ), followed in 1960 another renaming to Mierovo.
