history

Erasing was first mentioned in a document in 1527. The spelling of the district at that time was Leschen . The place name is derived from the Sorbian and probably describes a fallow area.

Delete was a largely Sorbian-speaking village until the 19th century. For his statistics on the Sorbian population in Lusatia, Arnošt Muka determined a total population of 133 in the 1880s, of which 83 were Sorbs and 50 Germans, which corresponded to a Sorbian-speaking share of 62%. In the following period, the use of the Sorbian language fell sharply, among other things because of the switch to German-language school instruction. Ernst Tschernik had 156 inhabitants in 1954, but only one of them had knowledge of Sorbian.

After the Congress of Vienna , the entire Lower Lusatia came to the Kingdom of Prussia . When the new district was formed in 1816, delete came to the district of Calau . On June 27, 1950, the community was reclassified to the Cottbus district . On July 25, 1952, delete was assigned to the newly formed Cottbus-Land district in the Cottbus district . On January 10, 1973 it was incorporated into Laubst . After the reunification , delete was initially in the Cottbus district and after the district reform in December 1993 it was assigned to the Spree-Neisse district . On December 31, 2001, Laubst was incorporated into the city of Drebkau together with its parts of the community and the previously independent communities of Casel , Domsdorf , Greifenhain , Jehserig , Leuthen , Schorbus and Siewisch .
