After it was first mentioned, Münchhausen was owned by the Burgraves of Wettin , after the knight Dietrich von Torgau sold some of the hooves to the Dobrilugk monastery in 1286 . Münchhausen later belonged to the Dobrilugk pledge . The place was pledged to the Solms-Sonnenwalde and was redeemed by Rudolf von Gersdorff by 1572 . 1819 Munchausen had 350 floor and 1552⅞ Gulden deliver estimate. A church was also mentioned that was a branch church in Frankena.
