history

Brettin was first mentioned in a document in 1365.

On May 28, 2009, the municipality council of Brettin decided to dissolve itself by means of a territorial change agreement and to unite with 11 other municipalities to form a new unified municipality called the City of Jerichow . This contract was approved by the county as the lower local supervisory authority and came into effect on January 1, 2010.

At the same time, the Elbe-Stremme-Fiener administrative community also ceased to exist, as all former member communities merged to form the new unified community “City of Jerichow”.
