History

According to tradition, the settlement was named after Prince Domoszló, son of King Samuel, from whom the Kompolti family descended. The name comes from a Slavic personal name: Domoslav.[1] King Stephen V confirmed the charter of privilege of Aba Kompolt In 1263. In 1522, the village became the property of the Országh family [fr] by a succession treaty between the Kompolt and Országh families. After the death of Kristóf Országh [hu] in 1567, King Maximilian II agreed to the succession of the female branch and the estate passed to Borbala Országh and her husband Ferenc Török [hu]. The population fled from the Ottoman conquerors. King Leopold I donated Domoszló to John Einczinger in 1698, then István Tarródy became the landlord by purchase in 1722. The population resettled in the 18th century was mostly Slovaks. The village had 598 inhabitants in 1746 and 804 in 1767. The church of St. Demeter was built in the Baroque style in 1739, but one of the rose windows of the monastery that once stood here was also incorporated into the church. The castle of Oroszlánkő was built north of the village in the 13 century, the ruins of which are now already barely visible.[2]
