History

edit

It was originally an independent village, newly founded by Count István Ilésházy in 1594 as a Croatian refugees settlement. Its oldest known name is Sisek, the later name was Malé Šenkvice. Its inhabitants were peasants who had the same origin as the peasants from (Veľké) Šenkvice ("Big Šenkvice"). They were expelled from Croatia at the same time as the Veľkošenkvičans and settled in the village of Tárnok, and from there Ilésházy relocated them to the new village – Sisek.[2][3] In 1964, the village was merged with (then) neighboring village Veľké Čaníkovce (Veľké Šenkvice), which gave rise to today's Šenkvice.
