History

[edit]

Its name is first mentioned in documents in 1298 as the property of Endes belonging to Kaplony.

In the 14th century, the Vetéssy family and the Bagossy family litigated for its possession.

In 1406, it becomes the property of the Csomaközy family, then the Károlyi family becomes the owner, and it remains theirs in the subsequent centuries.

By 1516, it is already noted only as a wasteland, likely depopulated during the peasant uprising.

Ömböly, the property of the Károlyi family belonging to the Kaplony lineage, used to be part of the Szaniszló settlement (now located in Romania) and consisted of two parts: Ömböly and Zsuzsanna-major. The economic center of the nearby rural settlements, located about three kilometers apart, was Zsuzsanna-major.

In the early 20th century, only a forester's residence stood in the area of Ömböly, later replaced by the so-called Zömbölyi inn. Nearby was also Károly-major, but it too became part of Romanian territory.

In 1947, Ömböly and Zsuzsanna-major were merged into an independent village. The new settlement took the name of the old medieval village, Ömböly. The inhabitants of the village refer to the old Ömböly as Kisömböly and Zsuzsanna-major as Nagyömböly.

From 1950, the settlement belongs to the Piricsei Common Council of Nyírbátor District, and from 1989, it is within the attraction area of Nyírbátor District.

On September 21, 2014, the road leading to Szaniszló was completed.[1]
