history

The first written mention of (Klein) Lübs is in the year 975. The place name "Liubatici" at that time goes back to the Old Slavic "Ljubusicy" (family Ljubus or Ljubos from "ljubu" = dear, loved). In the course of the large-scale colonization of fallow land east of the Elbe by Archbishop Wichmann von Magdeburg in the middle of the 12th century by German farmers, German settlements often emerged next to existing Slavic villages. This is also the time when Groß Lübs was founded. The resulting anger shape of the village is still recognizable today. On September 30, 1928 the manor district Groß Lübs was united with the rural community Groß Lübs. Until 1937, Groß Lübs and Klein Lübs were two separate communities.

Until June 30, 2007, the municipality of Lübs was part of the Elbe-Ehle-Nuthe administrative community based in the city of Zerbst . After moving to the district of Jerichower Land on July 1, 2007, Lübs was co-administered by the city of Gommern. The community of Lübs was incorporated into the city of Gommern on January 1, 2009. There is a children's facility in Lübs.
