Ostffyasszonyfa () is a village in Vas county, Hungary. The village was first recorded in 1346 under the name Azzunfalva. By then it was already an important ferry point on the River Rába, and in later centuries also gained military strategic importance. Wooden bridges were constructed here, which were replaced by an iron bridge in the 19th century. The iron bridge was destroyed during World War II and the present bridge was built in the late 1960s.
The village's first known lord was János Lökös, who was stripped of his land and cattle in the 14th century. The forfeited properties were passed into the hands of the Kun originated Ost family, whose descendants were the later Osttfys. Besides them, the Csornai family, the Török family from Enying, the Zichy family and the Vidos family all owned properties here, primarily gained through their marriage relationship with the Osttfys.
