Nyalka was first mentioned in 1001 as Chimudi. King Ladislaus I donated it to the Benedictine Abbey of Pannonhalma. During the Ottoman invasion, the Esterházy and Cseszneky families also had noble estates in the village. The Turks destroyed the village, but after 1680 was repopulated by Hungarian serfs.
