The village was first mentioned in 1208 under the name Ban.
During the Ottoman wars, many Croats settled here in the 16th century (therefore "Croatian" in the German name to bordering Deutsch Jahrndorf / "German" Jahrndorf in Austria).
They are still a strong minority.
The area belonged to Hungary until 1947 along with the neighbouring villages Rusovce (Oroszvár in Hungarian) and Čunovo (Dunacsún in Hungarian).
In the years 1947-1950, Jarovce administratively belonged to Rusovce.
It has been an official borough of Bratislava since 1 January 1972.
