Bockwen was first mentioned in a document in 1180 as part of the name of a "Martinus de Bukewen". The village was administered by the Meissen Hereditary Authority . The manorial rule was exercised by the lords of Schloss Batzdorf in 1551 , and then in the 17th and 18th centuries the lords of Schloss Siebeneichen . The court village decreed in 1876 over a 259-hectare block and strip corridor .

On July 1, 1950, Spittewitz, until then a district of Reichenbach , was incorporated. On 1 January 1973 it made with Polenz the community Bockwen-Polenz . On April 1, 1993, this was incorporated into Scharfenberg , which since January 1, 1999 together with the localities of Klipphausen and Gauernitz has formed the municipality of Klipphausen .
