Iža had a turbulent history. In addition to natural disasters such as floods, fires and earthquakes, she survived military devastations and violent deportations after World War II. A monument to Turkish rule is the stone arch bridge, which can be crossed to this day. The village is an important archaeological site. Remains of the advanced fortress Kelemantia, which was part of the defense system of the northern border of the Roman Empire, were discovered in its vicinity. She was the only one lying on the left bank of the Danube. Preserved and partially reconstructed remains of stone buildings, adapted into a museum in nature, are a national cultural monument. Another rare locality is Bokrošské slanisko, included in the European system of Natura 2000 protected areas. Right in the middle of the village, visitors can sit in a gazebo above an artesian well 220 meters deep.
