As early as the 14th century, a distinction was made between a Slovak and a German part. 1419 was awarded the city a charter in 1523, then the municipal law. At that time there was a quarry where limestone was called. Besides this activity, agriculture and trade were widespread in the village. In the 16th century it was plundered three times by the Turks and burned down twice.
Until 1918 the place was in Sohl County in the Kingdom of Hungary and then came to the newly formed Czechoslovakia . 1959-1990 the district Zaježová was an independent municipality.
