The study examines the historical background of the origins of watermills in the Kingdom of Hungary. The paper is directed towards the process of spreading the watermill from the 11th to 13th centuries, with emphasis on question of the impact and the role of Benedictine monks in this process. The work tries to compare the conclusions of older historians, and to revaluate the informative value of the sources. The aim of the work is to try to estimate the date of construction of the first watermills and identify the period when watermills became common in the Kingdom of Hungary.

The interests of historians, archaeologists, ethnographers and conservationists overlap during research of mills as medieval and modern technical buildings. For archaeologist, a question of research is interesting in connection with the reconstruction of historical landscape. We analysed historical maps and historical written records as well as results of archaeological field survey during the research of mills in Kostoľany valley. Due to synthesis of obtained knowledge we were able to localize five historical water mills with a rich history situated on the stream Drevenica in Kostoľany valley. However, there are still many questions to be answered.
