The place goes back to a Slavic Rundling , which was later enlarged by German settlers as a row village . The name "Schlaguwitz" is documented for the year 1498. Until the 15th century, according to church sources, Schlagwitz was the "manor or knight residence" of a "Mergenthal" family. In 1492 the place was sold by Hans von Mergenthal to Götz von Ende auf Wolkenburg. Thus knock joke belonged to the 19th century with regard to the basic rule of the manor Wolkenburg . This in turn belonged to the electoral Saxon rule Wolkenburg , which as an enclave in the Schönburgic rule belonged to the electoral Saxon or royal Saxon office of Borna . Schlagwitz came to the royal Saxon court of Limbach as part of the Wolkenburg rule in 1851 and to the Penig court office in 1856 , which was merged with the Rochlitz administration in 1875 . Around 1800 mining was carried out in a mine on the Schlawitzer Flur, which belonged to the Wolkenburg Revier . The church of Schlagwitz was a parish church until 1929, with the exception of the time as a branch church of Wolkenburg (1580 to 1614). From 1929/36 the Schlagwitz church belonged to Ziegelheim as a branch church until 2001 when it became part of the Franken-Schlagwitz parish in the parish of Waldenburg.

On July 1, 1950, Schlagwitz was incorporated into Dürrenuhlsdorf , whereby the place was reclassified from the Rochlitz district to the Glauchau district . As a result of the second district reform in the GDR , Schlagwitz came to the district of Glauchau in the Chemnitz district in 1952 as a district of the municipality of Dürrenuhlsdorf (renamed the Karl-Marx-Stadt district in 1953 ), which was continued as the Saxon district of Glauchau from 1990 and in 1994 in the Chemnitzer Land district or 2008 in the district of Zwickau. With the incorporation of the municipality of Dürrenuhlsdorf, Schlagwitz became a district of the city of Waldenburg on January 1, 1999.
