"The Danube cannot be a border, it is just a hand that connects both banks." This idea of Ferenc Nehéz, a native of the village of Moča, is also followed by its current inhabitants. The village has good relations with municipalities on both sides of the Danube and extensive plans for the development of water tourism.

The village has good relations with municipalities on both sides of the Danube and extensive plans for the development of water tourism.
The village, located halfway between Štúrovo and Komárno, is first mentioned in 1156. The original inhabitants were boatmen and millers. In 1700, nine water mills worked here and later they founded a miller's guild. At the end of the nineteenth century, a port of steam mills was built in Moča. Vegetables, fruits and grapes thrive on the surrounding sandy soils. Every family still grows the vineyard here to this day. There is a Roman Catholic and Reformed church in the village and its rich history is documented by ethnographic collections in the village museum. Residents and visitors of Moče like to listen to the folklore ensemble Vadvirág, which introduces the milling, viticultural and harvest harvest traditions on the Danube.
