The forest hoof village Oberwinkel was mentioned in the years 1261 and 1349 as "Winkile" or "Winkele". As with Niederwinkel , the foundation of the place is related to the Remse monastery . In the 14th century the distinction between "superior angle" (upper angle) and "inferior angle" (lower angle) was first made in documents. The church of Oberwinkel was mentioned at the time the town was founded. It was an independent parish until 1932, since then it has belonged to the church of Old Town Waldenburg .

In 1543, Oberwinkel was bought by the Lords of Schönburg as the former property of the Remse Monastery, which was dissolved in the course of the Reformation in 1533 . The Oberwinkler Mühle, today known as Glänzelmühle, came under the manorial rule of the Callenberg manor , which was under the Schönburg rule of Waldenburg as a vassal property . From 1724 it was in civil private ownership. Around 1696, Oberwinkel is managed as an immediate place of the Schönburg rulership of Remse , which arose after the dissolution of the Remse monastery in 1533 and belonged to the Lords of Schönburg under Wettin suzerainty since 1543 . In the years 1780 to 1797 an English garden was built in the corridors of old town Waldenburg and Oberwinkel on an area of ​​113 hectares , which was named "Greenfield" (today: Grünstelder Park ). In the Oberwinkler part, the Glänzelmühle is located as a building in the park. Between 1726 and 1934, the Glänzel millers ran a pub next to the grinding mill.

As part of the administrative reorganization of the Kingdom of Saxony, Oberwinkel was subordinated to the Zwickau district administration as part of the Schönburg feudal lordship of Remse in 1835. The feudal lordship of Remse and its locations has since been administratively administered by the royal Saxon office of Zwickau . From 1856 Oberwinkel belonged to the Remse court office and from 1875 initially to the Zwickau administration . After an administrative reform was carried out in the area of ​​the Schönburg recession in 1878, Oberwinkel and the entire former judicial district of Remse came to the newly founded Saxon governorate of Glauchau in 1880 .

As a result of the second district reform in the GDR , the Oberwinkel community became part of Glauchau district in the Chemnitz district (renamed Karl-Marx-Stadt district in 1953 ). On September 17, 1961, Oberwinkel was incorporated into Ebersbach . In the same year the mill building of the Glänzelmühle was demolished due to disrepair. When the municipality of Ebersbach was incorporated into the municipality of Reinholdshain , on January 1, 1974 the reclassification from Oberwinkel to Waldenburg took place. As a district of the city of Waldenburg, Oberwinkel came to the Saxon district of Glauchau in 1990 , which was added to the district of Chemnitzer Land in 1994 and in 2008 in the district of Zwickau.
