history

Planena was the property of the Faculty of Theology in Halle in Saalkreis of the Archbishopric of Magdeburg . In 1680 the place came with the Saalkreis to the Duchy of Magdeburg under Brandenburg-Prussian rule. With the Peace of Tilsit in 1807 Planena was incorporated into the Kingdom of Westphalia and assigned to the Halle district in the Saale department. The place came to the canton of Glaucha . After Napoleon's defeat and the end of the Kingdom of Westphalia, Napoleon's allied opponents liberated the Saalkreis in early October 1813. During the political reorganization after the Congress of Vienna in 1815, the place was attached to the administrative district of Merseburg in the Prussian province of Saxony and assigned to the Saalkreis.
