The place name is of German origin, so it can be assumed that the place was created during the German conquest of the Slavic East Elbe areas in the 12th century. Its existence is confirmed by the first documentary mention from 1117. At that time Ihleburg was in the possession of the monk Bernhard von Domersleben. He donated the place to the Magdeburg Berge monastery , confirmed by a papal document from 1209. The first church in the place is also mentioned in a document in 1225. In 1269 the place became the property of the Ascanians and was later subordinated to the Saxon office of Gommern . Ihleburg was put on record as a parish in 1342. To protect against the floods of the Elbe, the first Elbe dykes were built for Ihleburg in the 14th century. In 1648, in the last year of the Thirty Years War , Count Palatine Carl August , who was in the Swedish service, held a large troop display near Ihleburg. The subsequent billeting of the soldiers caused considerable damage in the place. When the office of Gommern was abolished with the defeat of Napoleon in the Wars of Liberation, Ihleburg came to Prussia in 1815 and was incorporated into the district of Jerichow I with the district town of Burg. The Ihle Canal , built between 1856 and 1871 (today part of the Elbe-Havel Canal), passed Ihleburg just one kilometer away. A lock installed here was named after the place. In 1890 the old Elbe dykes were replaced by new systems. In 1910 Ihleburg had 594 inhabitants, in 1939 there were 560. In the course of the GDR territorial reform, Ihleburg was incorporated into the Burg district. In 1964 there were also 560 people living in the village. On May 25, 2002 it was incorporated into Burg.
