Founded in the 13th century, the small Town was destroyed in 1366 by the Lusatian League when the Archbishop of Breslau decided to establish a Staple for Woad. The League was fined a high repentance, but the City of Görlitz was able to maintain its monopoly on Woadtrade.
Prior to 1945 it was in Germany.
