history

Fuglau is first mentioned in a document in 1144. In a Latin document from Altenburg Abbey from around 1220, an Udalricus de Uugla (Fuglau) is mentioned as a witness. Probably in the 13th century a fortified church was built on a hill above the village , which was destroyed by the Hussites around 1430 . In modern times, the Altenburg Abbey held local authority. In 1938 Fuglau was incorporated into Altenburg , and from 1945 the place was again an independent municipality. In the course of the amalgamation of the municipalities, the place became a part of the newly formed large municipality Altenburg on January 1st, 1970.
