Somogyzsitfa

Somogyzsitfa (until 1950 as Somogyfehéregyháza and Felsőzsitva) is a village in Somogy county, Hungary. It consists of the two former villages of Somogyfehéregyháza and Felsőzsitva.

Etymology

Somogyfehéregyháza (English: Somogy white house) got its name after its whitewashed buildings or church during the Middle Ages. The name of Felsőzsitva consists of the Hungarian felső (English: upper) and the South Slavic zsitva (Hungarian: gabona, English: grain).
