In the 18th century, there was already a Greek Catholic church in the village. In 1910, out of 725 inhabitants, 63 were Hungarians, 123 Slovaks, and 510 Rusyns. Of these, 125 were Roman Catholics, 562 were Greek Catholics, and 27 were Israelites.

In 1946, the village was renamed Antonivka. In 1995, the villagers returned the old name.
