Jews have lived in the settlement since the mid-1800s. The village of Darnózseli, which was united with Mosondarnó and Zseli in 1934, was a small centre for the Jewish population of the area: they had a prayer house on Main Street and a cemetery on the edge of the village.
The latter was opened in 1883 and the last funeral was held here in 1943. In 1985, a memorial wall was erected in the cemetery to commemorate the victims of the deportations from Darnozsel and the inter-island deportations.
