Stop point - Feketeerdő
The first mention of the settlement on the banks of the Moson-Danube dates back to 1274. Its Catholic church, whose patron saint is the Assumption, was built in 1863.
It is listed as a castle estate by its Hunyadi-era owners: the Counts of Szent-györgyi and Bazini. The village was surrounded by the Moson-Danube on three sides, and the manor of Otrad was located in the eastern part. It was repeatedly protected by its surroundings from great calamities. Thus, when the Turks destroyed the whole county in 1683, the environment - the water - protected the village and it avoided destruction. The plague of 1730, however, almost completely deserted.
