The village, located in the eastern part of the Turčianska basin, was formed by the merger of two original villages - Bela and Dulice. Although the first written mention dates back to 1282, the village is an older settlement and there was a settlement from the 10th and 11th centuries in its intravilá. The village is named after the eponymous stream and its topographical character, in the east-west direction, along the stream, was already given to it at its foundation. Among the monuments there is also the Gothic Roman Catholic Church of Corpus Christi. It is a single-nave building, built sometime in the last third of the 13th - early 14th century, with a rectangular end of the presbytery and a rebuilt tower. The church acquired its present layout in the 17th century, when it belonged to the Protestants. The Renaissance altar, originally Protestant, also dates from this period. In the 17th century a tower and a protective wall around the church were added. The church served the Protestants until 1709, in the middle of the 18th century the ceiling of the nave was replaced by a baroque vault and in the middle of the 19th century the tower received a new roof. In the 20th century the facades of the building were repaired and in 2012 a Gothic portal in the south wall was discovered.
