Petlovac (
Until the end of World War II, the majority of the inhabitants was Danube Swabian, also called locally as Stifolder, because their ancestors arrived in the 17th and 18th centuries from Fulda (district).[5] Most of the former German settlers were expelled to Allied-occupied Germany and Allied-occupied Austria in 1945-1948, as a result of the Potsdam Agreement.[6]
Name
Its name derived from the word "petao" (which means "rooster" in English). The village had different names in history. During Hungarian rule, it was called Sent Ištvan (Saint Stephen), and German settlers named it Blumendorf, which means Village of Flowers.[7]
