history

Belonging to the Reuss rule , Laasen was first mentioned in 1333 as a Vorwerk , the name roughly means settlement on new land. In the southeast of the village, for example in the area of ​​the later estate, there was originally a moated castle .

Laasen appeared as an independent municipality for the first time in 1409, the responsible church location is Trebnitz. In 1595 Heinrich Posthumus Reuss made it a chamber property .
