Vashosszúfalu
Vashosszúfalu [ u ː ː vɒʃhos fɒlu ] ( German iron - Langendorf ) is a town in Vas county in Hungary and is one there for small area Sarvar. Even at the end of the 19th century, the place was called only Hosszúfalu or German Langendorf in Goldau. The Komitatsname Vas as an additive was added in the 20th century to distinguish the place from other places of this name in other former Hungarian parts of the country, for example in the east of Slovenia ( slowen. Dolga vas, Lendava municipality ) or in Transylvania ( today district of Săcele ).
The place has the typical shape of an elongated road village. The population is 356 (as of 2011 ). The area of the municipality covers 13.92 km ².
The village is situated one kilometer north of the European Route 66, Graz connects with Székesfehérvár and about five kilometers west of the point where this east-west running thoroughfare intersects with the touristy main highway 84, which runs from Sopron to Lake Balaton. From Vashosszúfalu in the county seat Sarvar is 23 kilometers.
About a half mile outside of the town is the former Puszta Ódorfa earlier than Szentódorfa ( Szent - Ódor falva or Zenthodorfalwa ) an independent place. The old name of mission - falva suggests that the site was already established at the time of Árpádenherrschaft. Here was formerly a as the Holy Ulrich ( ungar Odor ) revered Bishop Ulrich of Augsburg consecrated church, of which, however, no longer remains are preserved.
History
The two settlements are first mentioned in the 15th century and were then initially owned by the Hungarian military leader Pál Kinizsi and Count István Szapolyai which they pledged to Tamás Bakócz, the Bishop of Győr and later primate of Esztergom. From him they were inherited by the Count Péter Erdődy. This Magnatenfamlie had the basic rule held until the Second World War. It maintained, inter alia, Ódorfa in a farm with cabin, whose buildings are still partially preserved, as well as a brick, large parts of the county supplied with building materials.
