Somogysimonyi is a village in Somogy County, Hungary. It incorporates the earlier separated villages of Gardos-puszta, Irma-puszta and Angyalvár-telep.

Geography

It lies southwest of Marcali at the border between Somogy and Zala County. It is separated from Nemesvid by the Forest of Gödörberk which consists mostly of oak trees. There are fields of May bells and cyclamen in the forest. Fallow deer, deer, roe deer and wild boars as well as foxes, polecats and weasels live there.

History

Somogysimonyi was earlier known as Simonyi and is since the 14th century inhabited. The village was first mentioned in the papal tithe register between 1332 and 1337. The Chernel family of Szentjakab owned the settlement in 1481. It perished during the Turkish occupation. It was already uninhabited according to the 1550 tax register. Its owner at the beginning of the 18th century was Pál Festetics and later from the 20th century the Zichy family. It had its own primary school. In 1932 a new Roman Catholic Church was built. [2]

Gardos-puszta

Gardos-puszta was first mentioned in the papal tithe register between 1332 and 1337 and had its own parish. It was owned by the Kanizsai family and was called as Gardus in 1395, then László Török acquired it in 1439, but he pawned it to András Csapi in 1464. Later it was in the hands of János Bornemissza de Tolna deputy treasurer. Ferenc Török owned it in 1550 but it was already empty. Between 1701 and 1703 it was in the hand of Miklós Ropoli and then from 1726 of the Festetics family. [3]
