Liega was formerly a manor settlement with a hamlet, which was first mentioned in 1259 as Conradus Ligav . As a result, the place name was changed several times, so Liega was called Ligowe in 1350 , in 1448 Legaw and 1465 Lege or Lyge in 1494. Another name variant comes from the year 1542, for which Ligau is passed down as a place name. In 1555 Liege was mentioned , and in 1791 Liega was used as a place name. A mill, the Kaltenbachmühle, was first mentioned in Liega in 1488. In the 18th century there was a mention of a Vorwerk in the village.

In the early modern period , Liega was administered from Hayn / Großenhain. In the 15th century, the place belonged to Grossenhain and at the end of the 17th century it belonged to the Hayn office . From 1856 Liega was subordinate to the Grossenhain court office and after 1875 to the administrative authority of Großenhain . Before Liega was given independence as a rural community by the Saxon rural community order in 1838, the place was characterized by the feudal system . In 1554, the manor Schönfeld behind Teil exercised the manorial rule over six possessed men and two residents who farmed twelve Hufen land. After the end of the Seven Years' War (1756–1763) the manor was landlord for three possessed men and nine cottagers on 34 hooves.

Liega kept an address book from 1888 concerning 23 entries, including an innkeeper, the miller from the Kaltenbachmühle, a master blacksmith and several landowners. In 1900 there was a 495 hectare manor block corridor around the street village of Liega , which was used for agriculture by the rural population of the village. The population remained constant at around 120 from the middle of the 19th century, in 1871 even 144 people lived in Liega, in 1890 there were 121. In 1925 131 people lived in Liega, 130 of whom belonged to the Evangelical Lutheran parish in Schönfeld . The other person was Catholic . Already in the 16th century the place was parish in the Schönfeld church.

Saxons came after the Second World War in the Soviet zone of occupation and later the GDR . On July 1, 1950, Liega's communal independence, which had been achieved in 1838, ended again, and the place was incorporated into the neighboring town of Schönfeld. The historically grown affiliation to Großenhain was retained even after the territorial reform in 1952 , which Schönfeld and its district assigned to the Grossenhain district in the Dresden district. Rural life in Liega was now based on the principle of agriculture in the GDR .

After German reunification , Liega came to the re-established Free State of Saxony. The following regional reforms in Saxony assigned Schönfeld to the Riesa-Großenhain district in 1994 and to the Meißen district in 2008 . As a result of incorporations in the 1990s, the community of Schönfeld continued to grow, so that Liega is one of five districts today.
