Hajós's name comes from the Hungarian word "hajó" which means boat or ship. It is possible that in the Middle Ages Hajós was surrounded by a large area of water. The medieval Hajós lost much of its population during the Ottoman conquest. The Ancestors of the Hajoscher Danube Swabians came in 1720 from different parts of Swabia, and was of entirely Catholic Swabians immigrants origin and settled there and hold until today their own Old Swabian German dialect.[1]

Jewish community

The Jewish community of Hajós, which numbered around 69 individuals at its peak in 1910,[2][3] was destroyed during the Holocaust.

At the end of May 1944, the Jews of the entire Kalocsa district, including those from Hajós, were deported to the Kalocsa ghetto. On 17 May, they were transported from the ghetto to the Auschwitz extermination camp.[4]

There are over 1,200 press houses built in village structure. The taste of the ripening fiery wine in the coolness of the cellars are offered by this region. This is the place where every stranger deserves a "Grüsgott."
