Mezőkövesd [ˈmɛzøːkøvɛʒd] is a town in Borsod-Abaúj-Zemplén county, Northern Hungary. It lies 50 km (31 mi) from Miskolc and 15 km (9 mi) from Eger. The area has been inhabited since the Great Migration. It is likely that the first Hungarian settlement was formed here shortly after the conquest of Hungary, but in 1275 in a church document it was mentioned as a deserted place. It is likely that the village was destroyed during the Mongol invasion of Hungary. In the 13th century, Mezőkövesd was the southernmost town belonging to the Diósgyőr estate. In 1464 the town got a seal and privileges from King Matthias. The name of the Matyó people, who inhabited the town and the area, is likely to have come from his name. More information...
