Geography and transport

The community lies about 45 km southeast of Wittenberg and about 20 km north of Torgau in the lowlands on the east bank of the Elbe west of the Annaburg Heath, among Prettin, Bethau, Großtreben, Plössig and Groß Nauendorf. This is, however, to a great extent a Bundeswehr troop drilling ground, and is therefore off limits. West of the community runs the Federal Highway (Bundesstraße) B 182, and to the north is the B 187. In the south, the community borders on Saxony.

History

Labrun is believed to have been founded in 1159 by Flemish migrants. They were settled in the area by the Archbishop of Magdeburg Wichmann von Seeburg and Albert the Bear.

gollark: Oh dear. We will be so much worse off without your tiny cobble hut.
gollark: I'm sure there's some way around it other than just `chown`ing the files afterward (as I forgot to that time).
gollark: Yep.
gollark: I copy the mod updates from my desktop to the server, and for some insane reason get stuck with the UID of my desktop user instead of the server's minecraft user, and for some other insane reason the default permission on them is such that it refuses to read the JARs. So the mod is considered gone, and it breaks.
gollark: Not due to more mods.
