The first written mention of the village dates from 1235. The first settlers were Hungarians, who gave the village the name Csörle, Chelye and later Cselje and Csölle. The name Čela has been valid since 1918. The name Waltersdorf was given to the village by the Germans, who settled in the village after 1700, when a plague broke out in the village, to which many inhabitants succumbed. The Germans came from Bavaria and Wüttemberg. The village was divided into two parts - Ober (Upper) Waltersdorf and Unter (Lower) Waltersdorf. The border was on the site of a pond pit (today approximately on the site of the Autopotreby Chmelár store). Until 1912, Upper Waltersdorf belonged to the dominion of the primate / primate property. Dolný Waltersdorf belonged to the landowner, who was appointed by the nobility in Bratislava. The first such landowner was the Korner family. In 1848, one part of the manor property was taken over by Count Karol Pálfy in advance, and the other part was divided among the then landowners - the Csarad family - as direct descendants of the first owner, ie the Korner family. Upper Waltersdorf was sold to the Count family of Lónyay in 1912. The inhabitants of the village at that time were mainly farmers.
