The corridor of the village, which was laid out in the late Middle Ages, was probably ceded to the Grünhain monastery by the Burgrave of Starkenberg as the owner of the Stollberg estate between 1240 and 1250, together with Zwönitz , Kühnhaide and Günsdorf . The first documentary mention as Gabelencz dates back to 1460 and can be found in the Zwickau Franciscans ' schedule. The place name is probably derived from the Old Sorbian Jablonica and means apple tree brook .

Over the centuries, Gablenz was mainly rural, as well-preserved homesteads with slate and boarding still define the townscape. In addition, there was a lot of mining going on on site. Above the Buschmühle, on the eastern side of the Gablenzbach, there is evidence of God's Hope Pit for 1572 . In the upper part of the village in 1579 the Güldener Archangel union built a corridor towards Beutha. The considerable freedom of the village, which is documented in the complaint of 1627, can probably be attributed to mining. Accordingly, Gablenz had the right to free fishing, free hunting of small game, exemption from beer compulsory and salt monopoly and free baking. Furthermore, it was allowed to set up active frames , which was otherwise reserved for the cities. As August Schumann reports, stocking knitting was widespread on site until the 19th century . He also mentions something about hop growing. In the 19th century a secondary school to the Stollberger School was set up in the village. In 1904 a stocking factory was built which was used in the GDR by the VEB Lößnitz laundry combine. The former factory owner's villa has been converted into a kindergarten.

Until 1843 Gablenz belonged to the Grünhain office and then to the Stollberg office. From 1875 to 1910 it belonged to the Chemnitz Office, then until 1950 to the Stollberg Office. After the Stollberg district was dissolved in 1950, Gablenz belonged to the Aue district until the Stollberg district was re-established in 1952 .

It was incorporated into Stollberg on January 1, 1974.
