Obec Boldog má v súčasnosti 386 obyvateľov. Prvá písomná zmienka o obci pochádza z r. 1245, keď sa spomína pod názvom Tulwej flolvaj). V r. 1358 kráľ Ľudovít daroval dedinu reholi klarisiek a obec dostáva názov Boldogasszonyfalva. V r. 1888 sa názov skrátil na Boldogfa a tento maďarský názov platí dodnes. Slovenský názov obce v rokoch 1808 až 1960 bol Matka Božia, od r. 1960 Boldog. Kultúrnou pamiatkou v obci je kostol Nanebovzatia Panny Márie pôvodne postavený (koncom 13. st) v románskom slohu, neskoršie upravený do barokovej podoby. Pri renovácii kostola sa našla vápencová doska s latinským nápisom z náhrobku rímskeho vojaka a obchodníka Quintusa Atiliusa z obdobia r. 70 až 138 nášho letopočtu, čo znamená, že ide o najstaršiu písomnú pamiatku na území Slovenska.

In 1888 its name was shortened to Boldogfa - this Hungarian name is used at present Its name in the Slovak language during 1808-1960 was Matka Božia (Mother of God), since 1960 it has been Boldog again.
