PILIS city situated in the heart of Pest county of Hungary. There are various explanations for the name of the village. On the basis of a few written documents, it is believed that Pylis was the name of a Hungarian family arriving in the region during the Magyar Conquest. The name „Pilis”, however, may also allude to the typical hairstyle of monks or to the arid land without vegetation, in wich latter case the word would be of Slavic origin. Its area is rich in archeologist findigs from the bronz- and iron ages, and a mass burial place from the second century and from the time of the Hungarian Conquest have also been found there. It was first mentioned in the register in 1326. As a plain, it was required by the Fay-family. Since 1711 it belonged to János Beleznay, who populated it with Slovaks from the highlands. In the XIXs century it was owned by the Nyáry- and Gubányi families. Useful links:
