history

Rahna is a Slavic foundation from around the year 600. The oldest documented mention goes back to 1277 . At that time, the Wettin Margrave Dietrich von Landsberg sold the Eisdorf court seat, including all the associated locations, to the bishop of the Merseburg Monastery Friedrich I von Torgau for 300 silver marks. Rahna is also mentioned among the thirty places.

In 1713 the entire village corridor was measured and mapped by Rahna. The corresponding land register is still available.

In the following period, until 1815, Rahna belonged to the Hochstift-Merseburg office of Lützen , which had been under Electoral Saxon sovereignty since 1561 and belonged to the secondary school principality of Saxony-Merseburg between 1656/57 and 1738 .

The place was ancestral seat of the noble family von Rahna .

In the course of the first district reform in the GDR , Rahna was incorporated into Großgörschen on July 1, 1950 and reclassified into the Weißenfels district . Großgörschen has been part of the new town of Lützen since 2010.
