[edit] History

It was first mentioned in 1261 under name Kulod, while in 1330 it was mentioned as Kulund, and several years later as Bel-Kulund during the Hungarian Kingdom. During Ottoman rule (16th-17th century), the village of Kolut was populated by ethnic Serbs[citation needed]. In the 18th century, Germans and Hungarians settled here as well. After World War II, the village was settled by 436 families from Lika and Gorski Kotar.
