History

The area has been inhabited since ancient times. The village Ózd was mentioned first in 1272. The modern city came into being with the unification of the towns Ózd, Bolyok and Sajóvárkony during the Socialist era of Hungary, when the northern part of the country was developed into a centre of heavy industry. Ózd has a large Roma population of 1,025 persons.
