The historic village at the road to Leipzig north of the Elbe river was incorporated into Dresden in 1903. From 1990 a new commercial area between Mickten and the neighbouring Kaditz quarter was developed including the Elbe Park mall with numerous shops and a cinema. The infrastructure of Mickten was severely damaged by the 2002 Elbe floods.
From 1946 Mickten had a football club called SG Mickten that merged with the Dresdner SC in 1954.
