Henckovce (1470 Henczko, Hentzendorf, 1551 Henczkowcze, 1563 Henczowetz, 1590 Henczkowa) (; ) is a village and municipality in the Rožňava District in the Košice Region of eastern Slovakia.

==History== Henckovce was founded under Vlach law. In historical records the village was first mentioned in 1470 when some Germans settled there. The Bebek family ruled the village in the past and here transferred Rusyn colonists known as Walachian. Before the establishment of independent Czechoslovakia in 1918, Henckovce was part of Gömör and Kishont County within the Kingdom of Hungary. From 1939 to 1945, it was part of the Slovak Republic.
