Originally, Mošovce was made up of two settlements: The first one, Machyuch, was located in the area of today’s Starý Rad, and the second one, Terra Moys, which gave the village its current name, occupied the place of the present day Vidrmoch.
Orixinariamente Mošovce constaba de dúas partes: A primeira Machyuch estaba situada no lugar do Starý Rad actual, e a segunda Terra Moys, que lle deu ó pobo o seu nome actual, ocupou a localidade da actual Vidrmoch.
