Horné Orešany are documented in a document from 1296 as Dious. In 1390, Orešany was already called Villa Nucum Theutonicalis, later in German Ober-Nussdorf, Hungarian Német Diós, or Felső Diós. Administratively, Horné Orešany was incorporated into the Bratislava capital, in the district of Trnava. The village was established on the edge of a guarded border pass. On its other side, the villages of Plavecké Podhradie and Plavecký svätý Mikuláš were established. Via Magna - Veľká cesta or Via Bohemica - Česká cesta passed through this pass.
