Šenkvice (Hungarian: Senkőc) is a village and municipality in central Slovakia in Pezinok District in the Bratislava region. The town of roughly 5,000 people lies east of Pezinok and south of Modra, and is connected to each via a main road. Another road connects Šenkvice to Blatné, which lies about five kilometers (three miles) south-east. The name derives from a Slavic personal name Čaník (1256, villa Chanuk). The German colonists adopted the Slovak name (probably Čaníkovce) as Sankawych, Sankavich (1390) and finally as Schenkowitz, Schenkwitz. In the 16th century, the village was abandoned and resettled by the Croatians who adopted the German name and changed it to Šenkvice. This became also the Slovak name. More information...
