The village district was settled since the Neolithic times. Moča is first mentioned in 1208. The former Queens estetes of Komárno domain became the properity of the Esztergom Archbishop in 1291. The Turks devastated the village, however it was resettled in the 18th century. The inhabitants were employed as farmers, fishermen, ferrymen, later also vine growers; flour milling was well known, too. The Roman Catholic church of St. Trinity was built on older foundations in baroque style in 1764, and rebuilt in the first half of the 20th century then after 1945. A late classicist Calvinist church was built between 1858 – 1860, and it was adapted later. In the Calvinist church there is a commemorative tablet dedicated to the victims of the World War I, in fornt of the church there is a World War II memorial. The village history is documented in details in the municipality museum, which has been opened on 6th October 2003. The tourists visiting Moča are awaited by the newly built harbour on Danube with the luxurious Restaurant PHOENIX with the capacity for 110 persons on shipboard providing the lodging and the tasting of wines of regional provenience.
