Felcsút Village Council
Felcsút is a village in Fejér county, Hungary. History The village was first mentioned in 1269 where its name was originated from the personal name "Csút". ("fel-" felső"means "upper" in Hungarian.)

Owners and inhabitants were often changed between the 16th century and 19th century.
