History
editDating back to mentions in the 14th-century papal tithe records it became part of the Veszprém diocese’s holdings and was nearly abandoned during the Ottoman era. However, it was repopulated in the 18th century, benefiting from favorable conditions for agriculture once nearby areas were drained for farming. Key historical sites in Somogyacsa are Szent Márton chapel, built in 1892[3]
