Vajnory ( _de. Weinern, _hu. Pozsonyszől(l)ős) is a small borough in the northeast of Bratislava, Slovakia.

Milan Rastislav Štefánik international airport is located near Vajnory. Another airport - Vajnory Airport, which was the first airport in Slovakia - closed in 2006.

History

The first written mention of Vajnory dates to 1237, when it was a village with the original Slovak Slovak name "Prača" / "Pračany". In 1307, monastery in Austrian Heiligenkreuz purchased it and renamed the village "Weinern", referring to the main occupation of the villagers, working on vineyards and making wine. A relic of this name remains today in the Slovak variant, "Vajnory". It was purchased again by Bratislava in the 16th century. It was a borough only until 1851, when, shortly after the abolition of serfdom, Vajnory became an independent village again. It was made an official borough of Bratislava in 1946.
