Until the 15th century, the village was owned by the burgraves of Kirchberg (see Wasserburg Lehesten ) and the lords of Lobdeburg . In 1507 Altengönna was sold to the Teutonic Order and was part of the Kommende Lehesten until 1809 .
The family name de Ginna or von der Gönna / von der Gönne was first mentioned at the end of the 13th century and is still widely used today. With the establishment of a second village Gönna ( Neuengönna ) at the beginning of the 15th century, the name Altengönna became common .
The parish of Altengönna has also supplied the Krippendorf and Lehesten branches from the very beginning. In 1998 Closewitz, Cospeda, Lützeroda and Vierzehnheiligen were added to the parish.
