The village, first mentioned in Hungarian written sources in 1463 under the name Verelepets , was founded by fugitive settlers from lower-lying villages who wanted to avoid persecution by their feudal lords. According to a legend, the current name of the village is derived from the name of the shepherd Philip, who first settled here. From around 1875 there was an elementary school in the village.

Before 1919 the village was in the Kingdom of Hungary of the Austro-Hungarian Empire . During the First World War , the village was briefly captured by the Russian army in October 1914 . After the war it was briefly part of the Hungarian Socialist Soviet Republic .
