==Etymology== The origin of the village's name is thought to be Slavic or German. The Slav word kostolec or kostolac means small castle, fortified church or nunnery, while the German version (Kestenholz - chestnut tree) dates back to the 12-15th centuries. In the documents many versions appear, of which the Hungarian name was spelt Kesztölcz until 1907.
