The Prießnitz district was first mentioned in 983 in a deed of donation from Otto II to the Magdeburg diocese . The jurisdiction over the place until 1856 lay with the local manor Prießnitz. The place was until 1856 in the Electoral Saxon or Royal Saxon Office Borna . The manor was the oldest ancestral seat of the Meissen noble family von Einsiedel and was in their possession from 1380 to 1919.

From 1856 the place belonged to the Borna court office and from 1875 to the Borna district administration . The Prießnitz waterworks received water from the Borna-Ost / Bockwitz opencast mine between 1978 and 1990 .
