History
The village was first mentioned in 1269 where its name was originated from the personal name "Csút". ("fel-" ["felső"] means "upper" in Hungarian.) In the Middle Ages the owners were crusaders from Székesfehérvár and in the 15th century became property of the Pálos rend.
Owners and inhabitants were often changed between the 16th century and 19th century.
The Roman Catholic church was built in classicist style between 1828 and 1840, and the Reformed church was finished by 1895.
A big change was the building of the railway which connected the village to the rest of the country, which was discontinued since.
