History

The centre of the village is home to the ruins of a church dating back to the early Kingdom of Hungary. The village was named after Saint Lawrence, to whom the village's 13th century church was dedicated. Under Turkish rule, the village was entirely depopulated, and its lands became incorporated into the town of Kecskemét as open pastureland. In 1899, an independent settlement was reformed, going by the name of Koháryszentlőrinc, but in 1913 the village was again subsumed under the jusdisction of Kecskemét. The settlement became independent again in 1950, at which point it was given its current name, Nyárlőrinc.
