Trhová Hradská (Hungarian: Vásárút, in Hungarian pronounced as /ˈvaːʃaːruːt/,) is a village and municipality in the Dunajská Streda District in the Trnava Region of south-west Slovakia.
In the 9th century, the territory of Trhová Hradská became part of the Kingdom of Hungary. The village was first recorded in 1235 by its Hungarian name as "Vasarut". Until the end of World War I, it was part of Hungary and fell within the Dunaszerdahely district of Pozsony County. After the Austro-Hungarian army disintegrated in November 1918, Czechoslovak troops occupied the area. After the Treaty of Trianon of 1920, the village became officially part of Czechoslovakia. In November 1938, the First Vienna Award granted the area to Hungary and it was held by Hungary until 1945. After Soviet occupation in 1945, Czechoslovak administration returned and the village became officially part of Czechoslovakia in 1947.
In 1910, the village had 1337, for the most part, Hungarian inhabitants. At the 2001 Census the recorded population of the village was 2125 while an end-2008 estimate by the Statistical Office had the villages's population as 2254.
