The origin of the name Uzhgorod

According to historical documents, in the first mention, until the end of the first world war took only one name: Ungvar (modification of Hunkbar, Hungvar, Onhvar).

The name consists of two parts: “Ung” and “war”. Due to the second part of the scientists agree, in fact the word “war” in Hungarian means strengthening, Fortress, castle.

There is a great debate the etymology of the word “Ung”. In 1860 He was one of the first historians of Meysarosh Caro (1821/90) stated, that “Ung” apparently means “fast”. One of the researchers Ede Mauks, based on the fact, that among the nomadic peoples of Turkish tribal chiefs was called “Ong”.

One of the leaders of the old ugrów at the end of the IX-early 10th century, he seized the city of Uzhhorod and Fort ( City ) after it was given the name “Onhvar” (“Ungvar”).

Jan Rakowski believed, the name Ungvar more Slavic than Uzhhorod and comes from the words like Service (Ung), What mark, South (River Ung (Services in the Slovak language) Today Use, floats on Połudzeń) and the word “merchandise “(create, Fortress, Fortress), which fared letter “T “and we get war. In the 19th century, eventually formed the name of Uzhhorod, by replacing part of the “Ung” at “Uzh”, and the Hungarian “war” (castle, fortification) the translated (with an error) city.

After the war, and the world exists as a city Uzhgorod.
