history

Hohenleipisch was mentioned for the first time probably in 1210. 1346/1495 the place is mentioned as Hornlubisch. In 1422 Hohenleipisch belonged to the personal treasure of Duchess Offka , who moved into her widow's seat in the castle of Liebenwerda. The place was particularly badly affected in 1646 when Wrangel's troops were passing through . The Dobrilugk Monastery was a church patron. The pottery, which was widespread in Hohenleipisch and the surrounding area at that time, led to the establishment of a village guild in 1803 - a rarity in commercial history. In 1817 this guild had eleven members. Through this establishment, the distribution of Hohenleip pottery (stone and gray pottery, so-called blue stuff, as beer bottles, butter pots, melting pots) could be increased significantly. The pottery was delivered to Anhalt .

On the evening of January 26, 1874, there was a major fire in Hohenleipisch. A fire had broken out in a thatched house. The flames, favored by a violent storm, quickly spread to the buildings on the neighboring properties and only a thunderstorm ended the conflagration the next morning. In the end, the flames that could be seen as far as Elsterwerda destroyed nine farmsteads and a barn on a tenth farm.

Hohenleipisch was part of the Liebenwerda office . After the reorganization of the district structure in the Prussian state, the Liebenwerda district, to which Hohenleipisch also belonged, was incorporated into the Prussian province of Saxony in the administrative district of Merseburg on October 1, 1816. From 1952 to 1990 the place belonged to the Bad Liebenwerda district in the Cottbus district , and since 1990 in the state of Brandenburg. Since 1993 it has been part of the Elbe-Elster district .

The district of Dreska was first mentioned in a document in 1406.
