History[]
In historical records the village was first mentioned in 1245 as Danuskue (1255 Kues, 1344 Anyaskw; the name comes from Slavic "Hajnáč") when a big castle was standing here.

In 1773 there were only 13 peasant farmers and some craftsmen living in the village. In 1828 there were 84 houses and 375 inhabitants. These people mainly lived from agriculture till 1945.
