[edit] History

The village, populated by Unitarian Hungarians, is first mentioned in the tithe list (tizedjegyzek) of 1332 and belonged to the Unitarian part of Udvarhely. The original church was destroyed at the beginning of the 19th century, and the new church was built in a different place in the centre of the village.
