The place was first mentioned in a document in 1223. Since the 13th century, Mühlfeld had been the seat of a family of ministers who called themselves “de Muluelde”. After various changes of ownership, the aristocratic seat in the center of the village came to the Altenburg monastery in 1687 . In 1815 a fire destroyed most of the town.
