It is believed that Kalkreuth was founded by Frankish settlers in the 12th century. In 1220 a knight from Kalckreuth (Kalkenruth) was first mentioned in a document. With the documentary mention of a manor in 1284 (Heinricus de Kalcruthe), the place name is also passed down for the first time. The history of Kalkreuth is linked to the origin and development of the Kalkreuth estate , which consisted of the palace, sheep, farm and falcon yard and the pheasant garden and whose walls have been partially preserved. Elector Christian I had the estate expanded in the 16th century. August the Strong made Kalkreuth the location of a falconry for hunting herons . Equestrian sports and horse breeding have a long tradition in Kalkreuth. A saddle farm was mentioned here in the 15th century . In 1591 there was supposed to have been room for 400 horses in the stables of the estate. Pheasants were raised in special enclosures for falcon and hawk hunting. The Kalkreuth Riding and Driving Club now offers riding tournaments and events and activities for children.

In 1552 Kalkreuth had 21 possessed men and 13 residents . Until 1549 the place was a parish to Niederebersbach, after that it belonged ecclesiastically to Reinersdorf. Mid-18th century lived 14 possessed man and eight cottagers in Kalkreuth, they managed 7 7 / 8 hooves of eight bushels. The administrative responsibility lay with the Electoral Saxony office of Großenhain , from 1875 with that of the administrative authority of Großenhain . With the introduction of the Saxon rural community order in 1838 , Kalkreuth gained independence as a rural community.

The population of the village has doubled in just under 100 years. For 1834 the population is given as 215. In 1925, 435 people lived in Kalkreuth, 422 of whom were Evangelical-Lutheran and 13 were Catholic.

Towards the end of the Second World War , Soviet forced laborers were murdered by SS men in a gravel pit between Kalkreuth and Bieberach . Since 1975 a memorial by Peter Güttler commemorates this crime. The political changes after the end of the war let Kalkreuth become part of the Grossenhain district in the Dresden district of the German Democratic Republic during the 1952 regional reform . The work of the Kalkreuth farmers was converted to the principle of agriculture in the GDR . The primary school on the outskirts of the town towards Bieberach was opened as early as 1950. It was the first new school building in Saxony after the war.

During the time of the GDR, Kalkreuth was able to maintain its communal independence. The population of the place grew against the general trend from 621 (1950) to 880 in 1990. However, the turnaround and the German reunification in 1989/1990 required more efficient community structures, so that on January 1, 1994 Kalkreuth together with Rödern , Reinersdorf, Bieberach and Freitelsdorf-Cunnersdorf was incorporated into Ebersbach. The last official population of Kalkreuth was 912 on December 31, 1993, at its highest level. The newly developed residential area “Im Grünen Winkel” on the road to Rostig contributed to the population increase. On August 1, 1994, the first district reform in Saxony took place, which Ebersbach and Kalkreuth assigned to the Riesa-Großenhain district. In 2008 it was opened in what is now the district of Meissen.
