Situated near well known historical mining towns of Banská Štiavnica, Banská Bystrica and Kremnica, the village was in the spotlight of many historical events.
In 1540, its mines were granted by Count János Dubravicky to Kremnica.
As one of the most important centers of Protestant Reformation in the country, the town created the Protestant "League of Seven Mining Towns" together with Banská Belá, Banská Bystrica, Banská Štiavnica, Kremnica, Nová Baňa, and Pukanec.
