Satahovci was attested in written sources as Zetekolcz in 1365.[4][5] The Slovene name Satahovci (like the Hungarian name Muraszentes and older Szvetahócz[6] or Szvetehócz[5]) is derived from the adjective *svętъ 'holy, sacred', referring to a consecrated place.[7] In older sources, Satahovci is also attested in Slovene as Setovci, Svetovci, and Svetahovci.[7][8][9] Today his name in Prekmurje Slovene Setovci.[citation needed]
There is a small chapel in the settlement dedicated to the Holy Spirit. It was built in 1852 and has a belfry with an onion-domed copper-covered roof.[10]
