History
It was first mentioned in 1261 under name Kulod, while in 1330 it was mentioned as Kulund, and several years later as Bel-Kulund during the administration of the medieval Kingdom of Hungary. During Ottoman administration (16th-17th century), the village of Kolut was populated by ethnic Serbs. In the 18th century, Germans and Hungarians settled here as well. After World War II, the village was settled by 436 families from Lika and Gorski Kotar.
