In Kösseln (formerly also: Cösseln) there was a separate manor , which had belonged to the von Veltheim family in Ostrau since 1613 and to the Paschlau family, later Lichtenheldt from Kösseln, from 1906. In addition to the town of Kösseln, the manor also had jurisdiction over Möst (1522) and part of Werderthau (1613). Although the manor of Cösseln belonged to the manor of Ostrau until 1906, it was administered as a Stiftslehn and exclave by the Lauchstädt office of Merseburg under Electoral Saxon suzerainty. Kösseln was hit by a witch hunt in 1613 . The 74-year-old midwife Ortey Koch was sentenced to death by fire in a witch trial and died by suicide while in custody.
Until 1815 the places Oberplötz, Unterplötz and Cösseln were part of the Electorate of Saxony . As a result of the Vienna Congress it came in 1815 to the Prussian province of Saxony and were 1,816 district Bitterfeld in the administrative district of Merseburg province allocated Saxony. In 1818 Oberplötz had nine houses with 37 inhabitants. In the north it bordered on Hohnsdorf in Anhalt and in the west on Unterplötz, the other neighboring towns were Kösseln and Kaltenmark . In Unterplötz, the westernmost town in the Bitterfeld district, there were 14 houses with 80 inhabitants and a windmill at the same time. The Poststrasse ran through Unterplötz from Leipzig to Bernburg.
During the Second World War , numerous Soviet prisoners of war had to do forced labor in the Karl Moritz coal mine, and many died. The history of the municipality has been linked to coal mining for centuries . The VEB Steinkohlenwerk Plötz was shut down in 1967. This ended the 585-year-old mining tradition of the small Plötz- Wettin - Löbejün district , which is still reminiscent of the striking coal dump in Plötz.
With the first district reform in the GDR on July 1, 1950, the previously independent municipality of Kösseln was incorporated into Plötz. During the second district reform in the GDR, the municipality of Plötz came to the reduced hall circle in the Halle district on July 25, 1952 , which was added to the Saale district on July 1, 2007.
