The earliest written reference dates from 1263. The village had a few different names starting with "SANCTA CRUX DE SOLIO" which was the original name of the village. It means "holy cross near Zvolen". The present name of the village - Zvolenská Slatina - dates from 1927. The village was inhabited in the early Bronze Age which is documented by a few findings
