Zillingtal (Völgyfalu; Kroat: Celindof)
Village of 800 residents in the Eisenstadt district.

Zillingtal is a bilingual municipality; the population is about one-third Croatian. First mentioned in 1271, destroyed in 1529 and 1683, then resettled by Croats. The large Baroque Catholic parish church was built in 1659 and has a Rococo interior.

Zillingtal was combined with Steinbrunn (Stinkenbrunn) in 1971; civil records are there (FamilySearch films 665244 - 665246, 2350228 - 2350230). Old tax records (Urbéri tabellák, 1767-1773) are on FamilySearch film # 1529868.
