In the middle of the village stands a statue of the first chairman of Matica slovenská, Bishop Štefan Moyzes, after whom the village was named. But it was originally called Mojzes' Izdeg. It may sound Hungarian, but the origin of the word is Slavic. Izdeg was also established in the marshy areas, similarly to the East Slovak village of Izdoba and the Moravian Izda near Lanžhot. Such a word has no support in Hungarian. At least that's what historians say. Although it does not seem so at first glance, Mojzesovo is a very old village. Already in the 8th century, there was a Slavic settlement in the Danubian Lowland on the left bank of the Nitra River, and Mojzesovo already existed as a settlement in the 12th century. However, Izdeg was first mentioned in documents in 1273. For many centuries, its history is linked to the history of Šurian Castle, although the village as a property often changed lord. With the establishment of the first Czechoslovak Republic, it came under the administration of the county and today it belongs to the district of Nové Zámky. Like many villages in the Danube region, Mojzesovo has good winemakers and winegrowers who can take advantage of sunny days and produce quality juice from the local harvest. Every year at the celebrations of St. Urbana is consecrated to the young wine by a local priest. It is also fun during children's fishing competitions and the municipal slaughterhouse. The village is decorated with a carriage and the inhabitants accompanied by folk music. Every year in Mojzesov, general festivities are held at the beginning of July, where artists from the area and celebrities perform.
