Batiovo

Batiovo (Ukrainian: Батьово; Hungarian: Bátyú; Slovak: Baťovo) is a rural settlement in Berehove Raion, Zakarpattia Oblast, western Ukraine.

[2] The Uzhhorod—Solotvyno railroad line runs through Batiovo, with a station located in the town that serves as a border control between Ukraine with Hungary.

During World War II, about 40 families from the town were sent to Nazi concentration camps and an additional 90 people were sent to do forced labor.

[3] In 1946, the settlement's name was changed to Vuzlove (Ukrainian: Вузлове) or Uzlovoe (Russian: Узловое), which it kept until it was renamed back to "Batiovo" on April 1, 1995.

[3] The town houses a couple of attractions, including the Reformed Church, which was originally built in 1910, but rebuilt in 1988, and renovated in 2003; as well as the Lónyay Estate, which was nationalized during the Soviet times.
