History[edit]
In historical records, the village was first mentioned in 1254 (Dobruna). In 1351 it was allied with the town of Sása. In the 15th century it belonged to local feudatories and, after on, to Esterházy. From 1582 to 1657 it had to pay tributes to Turks who besieged the village in 1578, 1559 and 1663. Before the establishment of independent Czechoslovakia in 1918, Dobrá Niva was part of Zólyom County within the Kingdom of Hungary. From 1939 to 1945, it was part of the Slovak Republic.
