The present municipality was established in 1960 through the merger of the places Dolný Ďur (until 1948 "Dolný Ďúrad"; Hungarian Alsógyőröd ), Horný Ďur (until 1948 "Horný Ďúrad"; Hungarian Felsőgyőröd ) and Rohožnica (until 1948 "Dekeneš"; Hungarian Kisgyékényš ; Hungarian Kisgyőröd 1907 Gyékényes ).
The old, originally single place Ďúr was first mentioned in writing in 1205 as Geurund , but in the 13th century it was divided into two places, as the name Geurud Superior from 1278 shows. Rohožnica was first mentioned in writing in 1209 as Gekenus . In 1828 there were 48 houses and 333 inhabitants in Dolný Ďur, 44 houses and 301 inhabitants in Horný Ďur; no information is available for Rohožnica.

Until 1918, the places in Persch County belonged to the Kingdom of Hungary and then came to Czechoslovakia or now Slovakia. From 1938 to 1945 they were once again part of Hungary due to the First Vienna Arbitration .
