Shards of history

The first written mention of the village is a deed of gift from 1209, which King Andrew II. dedicated to Šebuš, the ancestor of the counts of St. George, the property of Svätý Jur with four villages belonging to this property - Čeklís, Ivanka, Kostolná, Eberhard (in Latin Ybreharth).
Eberhard is a very old settlement. In r. 1260 its name is given as terra Eburhardi, r. 1311 as Villa Eberhardi, r. 1390 it is Ebersdorf, r. 1397 Eberharth, r. 1808 in Hungarian Éberhárd, in German Eberhard. The name apparently comes from the German personal name Eberhardt - it could have been the name of the village's founder.
In the 13th century, there was a crossing (ford) in Eberhard across the Little Danube to Žitný ostrov. In the Middle Ages, there was strong shipping, there was even a port and tolls were collected. In r. In 1369, the owners obtained permission from King Louis I to build a bridge.
In the 13th century, the Germans lived in Eberhard. They remained here until the 16th century, when the village was completely depopulated. The manor was divided after 1543, one part remains part of the St. George's property, the backup owner of the other part becomes Michal Mérey. After 1626, the St. George's estate was acquired by the Pálfa family, and the second part of the estate was acquired by Anna Mérey's marriage by the Balassa family. In addition to them, members of the Pázmány, Hederváry and Forgách families also had other ownership shares.
Juraj SzelepcsényiIn the 17th century the Eberhard estate and castle were gradually acquired by the Hungarian primate, Archbishop Juraj Szelepcsényi (1595 - 1685). He is one of the most prominent figures in Hungarian history of the 17th century. He was born in simple circumstances and achieved the highest position and power in secular and ecclesiastical offices. His protector and supporter on the theological career was the Archbishop of Esztergom, Peter Pázmány. Throughout his career, Szelepcsényi has been a strong supporter of the Habsburg interests and has strongly promoted anti-Reformation policies. In r. In 1674 he transported 6 Calvinist clergymen to Eberhard and performed forced labor at the local castle.

In the 19th century, Eberhard was acquired by the family of Counts of Apponyi, one of the largest and most influential Count families in Hungary. It became the main seat of the administration of the Eberhard estate. Juraj Apponyi (1808 - 1899) rebuilt the manor house in the neoclassical style and turned it into a pleasant country house surrounded by a park. His eldest son Albert (1846 - 1933), who was an excellent speaker and politician, often stayed here with his family until 1923. The villagers remember him helping with the floods, building a new school after the fire, helping during the First World War. . He traveled the world a lot and spoke six languages. He was in America several times and wrote to President Teodor Roosevelt. During a visit to Europe, Teodor Roosevelt was a guest on 20 April 1910 in the Eberhard mansion.
After the creation of the Czechoslovak Republic, the Apponyian dominion was divided into In 1923, the manor house, park and farm became the seat of a horticultural school called the State Agricultural School in Eberhard. With a changed name and a modified study program, the gardening school has been operating in this area to this day.
During World War II, the village and much of Rye Island were annexed to Hungary. After the war, the territory returned to Czechoslovakia. In 1946, the original name of the village was changed to Malinovo.
A large part of the village's population was forcibly displaced to Hungary in 1946-48, some were deported to Bohemia and vacated houses were relocated according to the agreement on the exchange of citizens of Slovak nationality from Hungary.
