It was first mentioned in documents in 1323 and goes back to the transfer of four Hufen land near Langenrieth by Rudolf II and his brother Wenzel I to the monastery in Mühlberg . From 1324 the place belonged partly to the Mühlberg monastery. The residents of Langenrieth have always been farming and raising animals.

In 1540 the place was named as a branch of Koßdorf (before it belonged to the Boragk parish ) and from 1550 it belonged to the Mühlberg office . 1586 a leased Mühlberger citizens the convent Guildenstern in Muhlberg, together with the outworks Long Rieth and Wendisch-Borschütz . From 1619 to 1621 a half-timbered church was built in Langenrieth . In the Thirty Years War the place was devastated except for the church, which was spared.

In 1749 Heinrich von Brühl bought the Vorwerk Langenrieth property, which from then on belonged to the Martinskirchen manor until 1945 . During the Wars of Liberation in September 1813 French troops encamped around the place.

In 1816 145 people lived in Langenrieth and in 1835 the place had 23 houses and 153 inhabitants with 22 horses, 155 cattle, 213 sheep, 8 goats and 50 pigs.

In 1842 a new school was built in Langenrieth and from 1912 to 1913 the old dilapidated half-timbered church was demolished. A new village church was built in the same place during the same period. In 1919 the Höhne brothers built the new mill and in 1934 the volunteer fire brigade was founded.

One of the two bells in Langenrieth's church was melted down during World War II. A replacement bell from Koßdorf turned out to be a stop bell and could therefore not be used to ring. In March 2009 the parish received a new bell. The new bell was created in the Lauchhammer art and bell foundry and installed in October 2009.
