Additional information

The name Bodrogkeresztúr first appears in a certificate in 1239. Since 1411 the village formed part of the Tokaj castle manor. In 1517 and 1520, the town was already mentioned as a farming town in the urbariums, with a population exceeding that of Tokaj. According to a census, although the Turks destroyed the town before 1567, it was soon rebuilt and its economic and social life started to boom. By the 1600s, Bodrogkeresztúr had four country fairs a year, a daily local market, a butcher's shop, the right to sell wine, to choose its own judges and supreme jurisdiction. Due to the Turkish occupation and the war of independence between 1703 and 1711, the 18th century started with the settlement being economically exhausted, but thanks to the vineyards, the wine and the hard work of the local people, the farming town started to recover. The settlement became a village in the 19th century when farming towns were abolished. The current town hall building once belonged to the family of the Prince of Hohenlohe, and it was purchase by the municipality in 1929. On the façade you can see the coat of arms of Bodrogkeresztúr.

The Treasure Trove of Bodrogkeresztúr Keresztúr was inhabited already in prehistoric times. This is evidenced by the discovery of the two great artefact assemblages discovered. In the spring of 1918, workers at the foot of Dereszla Hill found gold jewellery, which archaeologists later determined to belong to the people who lived in the area 4,000 years ago. In 1921, another major set of finds was unearthed: the excavation of a prehistoric cemetery revealed the Bronze Age Bodrogkeresztúr culture. You can discover the relics found in the Treasure Trove.
