Csákvárs a town located in Fejér county, Hungary. The history of the village
of Csákvár dates back to the 13th century. In the 1300s the settlement was owned
by the Csák clan. Due to Ottoman conquest of Hungary Csákvár population was also
reduced, so Germans were settled in the village, who established manufactures,
like pottery. It became a town in 2013.
